Investment thesis
Hackers/Founders is a volunteer-run global community of tech startup founders headquartered in Silicon Valley, with local chapters hosting meetups across dozens of countries since 2008. It helps founders find cofounders, investors, and advisers, and runs an applied research arm, H/F Research, that supports tech companies with data-driven insights. It is a founder network rather than an investment fund.
