Investment thesis
Mischief is an early-stage venture firm positioned as the kind of investor its partners wanted on their own cap tables. Its intentionally small partnership of four operators draws on experience building companies across many industries, having collectively raised around $1B in venture capital, hired over 1,000 executives, and generated more than $1B in revenue. The firm invests $1-5M in early-stage software startups and takes a generalist approach, backing companies across fintech, infrastructure and security, healthcare, climate, crypto, and SaaS. Mischief emphasizes hands-on collaboration with founders, leaning on the operating backgrounds of its partners to empathize with and help solve the challenges early-stage companies face.
