Most of these rhyme with what we’ve said in the past, but some have also evolved to fit the changing landscape and our own convictions about what really matters for founders and their investors at the seed stage. We are first and foremost pre-traction investors. Belief #1: The best time to invest is early.

Many of us in the seed stage ecosystem have noticed a shift in the way seed rounds are coming together. Historically, seed rounds were syndicated among several different firms. Today, we are seeing less syndication of seed rounds and sharper elbows among many of the funds in the market.

17 core investments have been made, I’d say our investment model was, and continues to be, consistent with the type of firm we want to build but if you’re not constantly evaluating how to get better and serve entrepreneurs, you won’t last very long in the early stage venture business. No more, no less.

As a founder, it feels like a long time, but it’s really a blip on the radar in the scheme of things. We focus on investing in seed stage companies. We almost always invest in the first round of institutional capital for these companies, in rounds that range from approximately $500K – $2M. Commerce: 5.
