Founders, Inc.

Founders, Inc. is a venture capital firm that acts as a home for ambitious founders, providing them with the first check and a supportive community to build innovative companies. They invest in emerging tech and industries such as AI/ML, AR/VR, B2B, Hardware, Content Creation, and Robotics. Beyond capital, they offer a 42,000 sq ft campus at Fort Mason in San Francisco, equipped with a hardware lab, media studio, workspaces, and regular community events. Their business model involves taking a 3-5% equity stake in exchange for funding and extensive resources, including office space, mentorship, and operational support. They focus on founders with vision, grit, technical skills, and a strong point of view, aiming to foster resilience and long-term growth rather than short-term, transactional relationships.
