Are you a startup founder in need of early-stage funding? Look no further! We are a small private fund that specializes in providing financial support to founders during the pre-seed, seed, and angel stages. While we may not be an incorporated VC, we offer early checks of up to $50,000 to help kickstart your entrepreneurial journey.
Stage: Early Stage
At our fund, we focus on early-stage startups. This means that if you are in the pre-seed, seed, or angel stage, we are here to support you. However, please note that our check size may not be suitable for Series A rounds.
Check Size: Up to $50K
We understand that every startup has unique financial needs. That’s why we offer checks of up to USD $50,000 per funding round. Whether you need capital for product development, marketing, or hiring, we are here to help.
Non-Financial Value Proposition
Our fund goes beyond just providing financial support. Our limited partners (LPs) have extensive experience in the ecommerce and payments industries in Southeast Asia. By partnering with us, you gain access to their knowledge, insights, and networks, which can be invaluable in growing your startup.
Industries/Verticals
We are interested in startups operating in the fields of AI, CPG (Consumer Packaged Goods), and Climate. If your business falls within these industries, we would love to hear from you.
Sourcing Startups
While we are open to considering startups from various locations, we primarily source startups based out of San Francisco, Los Angeles, and London. Our physical office is located in downtown Berkeley, providing us with a central hub to connect with founders in these areas.
Source of Funds
Our funds come from private LPs in Southeast Asia. These LPs have a keen interest in supporting promising startups and contributing to the growth of the entrepreneurial ecosystem.
When to Reach Out
If you are a founder with a prototype or minimum viable product (MVP) ready to showcase, including a pitch deck, we would love to hear from you. We are particularly excited about founders who have already tested product-market fit (PMF). However, we are also open to making exceptions and backing promising founders at the ideation stage. Don’t hesitate to reach out to us at fundbeaver@gmail.com for any inquiries or to discuss your startup.
Remember, we are here to support early-stage founders like you. Let us be a part of your entrepreneurial journey and help turn your vision into reality.
