Investment thesis

H2 Ventures invests in founders at the earliest possible stage, requiring nothing built or launched before committing capital. Operating on a cohort basis for roughly a decade, it backs 8-16 startups at a time, many of which participate in an in-house six-month pre-seed program. The firm concentrates on fintech, data and AI, seeking founders with purpose, ingenuity, industry insight and a drive to learn. Beyond funding, it provides mentoring, networks and long-term operational support through its team and alumni community, positioning itself as a venture partner for the life of a company. It also publishes an annual Fintech100 report.
