We are an investor collective of founders that invest in other early-stage founders. We are not your typical know-it-alls. In fact, we face the same challenges as you – every day. You can expect us to invest with our minds and support you with our hearts ❤️
We are just getting started, but have invested in these companies so far.
We are proud of our accomplishments 🚀
Our members have collectively started or scaled over 30 companies.
We have collectively made over 20+ investments in early-stage companies.
Members have successfully exited 5+ companies (founded or invested).
We normally don't do follow-ons, and we dilute with the founder team. We are not your lead investor, but once we are in, we are in bed together for life.
Our podcast is a great resource for learning about the challenges and opportunities of operating early-stage companies.
We are sector-agnostic and invest in a diverse range of (nordic) early-stage companies across various industries. We aim for a better gender diversity in the portfolio than in the team 🤦♂️
Join a community of (nordic) founders who are facing the same challenges and can provide support and advice.
We are more of a community 🥰 than an investor 💸
Sharing experiences and learnings from the field. Let us know if you know our next guest.
We are a group of experienced founders and early-stage operators. Diverse in experience, but we aim for better gender diversity in our portfolio.

Of course we also have a doctor. At one point, he transitioned from actively engaging with clinical medicine to founding (and later exiting) several medical clinics before recently launching Aeon.as.
Buy this guy a beer. You won't believe his war stories. This section wouldn't do it justice. Serial entreprenour that doesn't like start-ups.
Every team needs a grown-up. Have started, scaled, run and exited numerous hotel development projects. A seasoned advisor in all stages of business.
Check your Excel sheet. Nothing gets passed Ragnar. A passionate people person that thrives on helping you succeed. Especially when you must deal with investors.
