Our Investment Thesis
We believe the next wave of consumer businesses will be built by passionate community creators. Here's how we think about investing.
Our Core Belief
The experience economy is being built by creators, not corporations. Run clubs, mastermind groups, local festivals, niche communities—these are the new consumer brands. But most creators lack the tools, capital, and expertise to scale beyond a side hustle. We exist to change that.

Why Now, Why Here
And growing 15% annually, outpacing traditional consumer spending
A demographic that prioritizes experiences over material goods
Of experience creators lack professional tools and capital access
How We Invest
Our Investment Philosophy
Community First
We invest in founders who have built genuine communities, not just audiences. Engagement matters more than follower counts.
Operator Involvement
We are not passive investors. We deploy our platform, team, and network alongside capital. We earn our equity.
Patient Capital
Community businesses take time to mature. We take a long-term view and support founders through multiple growth phases.
Founder Friendly
Fair terms, transparent communication, and alignment of incentives. We succeed when our founders succeed.
