Investment thesis
Palumni VC operates as an investment syndicate focused on backing companies that have at least one co-founder or senior executive who is a Palantir alumnus. The syndicate points to notable Palantir-alumni-founded companies such as Addepar, Blend, Anduril, RelateIQ, and Authy as evidence of the talent it aims to support. The first $250k of every sourced deal meeting its Palantir-alum criterion is syndicated to its LP base, subject to the startup's approval, allowing individual limited partners to participate in these early-stage rounds.
