Investment thesis
Ignite House of Innovation operates as an early-stage VC that treats human capital as its core investment, applying a proprietary '100X Peak Performance' operating system and '5VC' whole-person model to help founders achieve outsized ROI and customer impact. Its IGNITE VC 2024 mandate seeks to be first money in and fund 30 of the Philippines' most driven founders with roughly PHP 5-10M per founder over 18-24 months, backing both 'rocket ships' and profitable 'steady ships'. The firm emphasizes an AI-first way of building every layer of a business and extends its methodology beyond startups to corporations, government, and academe, focusing squarely on Filipino talent at scale.
