Pre-seed Sessions by Techstart Ventures
A relaxed conversation where we’ll give a rundown of VC in general and how it differs to other types of investment, what type of projects it’s a fit for and how we look at opportunities. There are no stupid questions, and you don’t have to be actively fundraising to take part.
Techstart Ventures is an inception to pre-seed VC which invests in outlier founders pursuing uncapped global opportunities from a base in Scotland. We’ll explain what we mean by that during the sessions.
We believe that outlier founders and venture capital are widely misunderstood here, but that globally important companies can and will be built from a Scottish base. This is why we exist.
Our first cheques are normally between £200-750k in rounds that are typically up to £2m, but we frequently break our own rules. We don’t need PMF or revenue to make an investment, and we’re often the first to believe, which means we typically lead, co-lead or invest solo in first rounds. We also have significant follow-on capacity and often co-invest alongside other top-tier VCs from London, Berlin, San Francisco, and New York.
