Investment thesis
Openseed VC backs exceptional operators building technology companies at the earliest 'day zero' stage, often writing the first check before institutional investors arrive. The firm believes early-stage failure stems less from the idea and more from team vision and execution under uncertainty, so it aims to be a conviction-led partner from the outset. Founders are supported by the Openseed Operator Network of 50+ seasoned operators spanning software engineering, product, people, and go-to-market to help companies get from zero to one. The firm invests across Europe, the US, and Africa.
