Investment thesis
2.12 Angels focuses on pre-seed and seed investments in enterprise and cloud companies across North America, writing $100,000 checks. It emphasizes speed, making decisions after two Zoom meetings, and positions itself as offering the highest value-add per dollar invested. The firm does not lead rounds. Its mission is to help founders successfully raise Series A and B rounds, leveraging direct partner access to a large share of top US VC firms. It provides hands-on support including culture-building, executive mentorship, M&A guidance, and quarterly fundraising preparation, and connects founders with a community of 60+ founder and operator LPs.
