Investment thesis
Masia is a globally connected, founder-first angel fund based in Barcelona that invests at the pre-seed and seed stages, writing checks of roughly €125K–250K. It focuses on AI and frontier technologies including generative AI, health, biotech, fintech, blockchain, defense, climate, and hardware. The fund does not lead rounds or take board seats but engages with founders from day one, moving quickly with the rigor of a regulated fund. Its LP base of founders and operators helps portfolio companies with go-to-market, hiring, sales, and fundraising, and provides warm introductions to later-stage investors. Masia positions itself as a collaborative collective where LPs and portfolio founders operate as equals.
