Profile
Initial Capital is a firm, not a fund. This means we have neither limited partners, nor an investment committee taking part in our decision making process. Being focused on early-stage startups, our sweet-spot is the $100K-300K range, however, we do have the flexibility to invest higher amounts. Beyond an initial investment, Initial will be at the disposal of its portfolio for follow-on investments. We are comfortable co-investing along-side institutional investors, micro-vc's, and angels. At times we will lead a deal, while other times we will follow others.
