Investment thesis
Coalition focuses on supporting founders attempting ambitious solutions to important challenges. The firm's differentiator is its network of 100+ experienced operators from leading technology companies who serve as advisors, angels, and board members. Rather than traditional venture support, Coalition aims to provide hands-on, practical assistance from people with direct startup-building experience.
