Profile

Ironically the venture capital market gets rewarded by identifying, predicting and financing innovation yet it has not really innovated itself since its formation in the late 1960's. We’re changing that.

We have three goals at Jigsaw:

- Uncover the very best founder talent across Europe and invest as early as pre-seed. We aim to set a new standard for talent assessment.
- Provide an unprecedented level of support, often pre-term sheet, that moves the needle on outcomes for your company. Founder NPS is our measure of success.
- Adopt intelligent systems to constantly iterate on how we can be better at supporting founders and delivering market-leading financial returns for our founders and LPs

Who we are:

Jigsaw is made up of world class investors, entrepreneurs, mathematicians, scientists and engineers.

We’re redefining the venture capital model with a set of intelligent systems, underpinned by novel applications of tech, data and founder tools/programmes. Jigsaw adopts best practices from a multitude of disciplines to radically change how we find, assess, fund and support the very best founders in the market to build iconic, enduring companies.

Founders deserve better than the loosely-held promises of support that’s so prevalent in VC today and so we strongly believe in front-loading our support. Taking VC investment is a long-term partnership and we urge founders challenge their prospective VC’s to prove their worth upfront.

Over the last twenty years as investors, entrepreneurs, technologists and business leaders, we’ve come to realise that true value-add comes from solving very specific problems at key inflection points which top founders face in their path to success. We’re building the platform to give you access to this expertise.

Our team have invested in over 170 companies on five continents, backed a number of unicorns and category defining companies.
