Point Nine (also referred to as P9) is a thesis-driven early-stage venture capital firm based in Europe that invests globally in AI applied to the digital, physical and biological worlds, with a historical focus on SaaS and B2B software. The firm describes itself as a small equal partnership and writes checks of $1-10 million per company, with each of its four investment partners working closely with 6-8 companies at any given time.

The team is organized around four investment partners — Christoph Janz, Pawel Chudzinski, Louis Coppey and Ricardo Sequerra Amram — supported by a platform and operations group that includes a Director of Platform & Community (Laura Weritz), a General Counsel (Tilman Langer) and an Operating Partner (Aleksandra Zorylo). Point Nine also publishes written material on startup and SaaS topics, including guides on cohort analysis, founder share vesting, paths to building $100 million SaaS businesses, and investment rationales for portfolio companies.

Business model

Point Nine deploys capital as an early-stage venture investor, typically at pre-seed, seed and Series A stages, with occasional later-stage participation. Investments range from $1 million to $10 million per company, and partners maintain concentrated portfolios of 6-8 active companies each in order to work closely with founders.
