Investment thesis
Collective Spark focuses on early-stage technology ventures, seeking to back and elevate highly driven 'hustlers and hackers' building scalable, disruptive businesses. The firm invests at pre-seed, seed and Series-A stages, where it believes it can add the most value, with initial tickets of $500K to $1M and the ability to go up to $5M per startup including follow-on rounds. While largely category agnostic, it has predominantly invested in fintech, marketplaces, SaaS/enterprise, gaming and ML/AI. Beyond capital, Collective Spark provides operational support to portfolio companies across product and technology, growth and marketing, strategy, recruitment and finance.
