Our Story
Likeminded is a venture capital firm founded in 2021. We are an invite-only collective of business angels and active founders working together in a venture capital fund structure.
We write VC-sized tickets wrapped in angel-like domain expertise. We source among all our +45 partners to invest in the best early-stage tech startups which we then match with sector-specific knowledge found within our group.
Since its inception, Likeminded has made successful investments in various sectors and is dedicated to working closely with each company and founders to provide guidance and support as they grow. We are always looking for new opportunities to invest in and ambitious startups to support.
