Inside the community
We invest where founders already gather.
Every FN Fund company was founded by a Founders Network member, known to their peers long before the first check.
How we invest
Pre-seed, inside the community
Pre-seed
We invest at pre-seed, often the first institutional check a founder takes.
Community first
Every company we've backed was founded by a Founders Network member. Membership comes before a meeting with us.
Any sector, any city
We don't pick a sector or a geography. We back FN founders wherever they are and whatever they're building.
The network knows the founder
Our edge is time: by the time a member raises, peers in the community have often worked alongside them for months or years.

Founder or investor? Start here.
FN Fund only backs Founders Network members, so founders start with a membership request. Investors can tell us a bit about themselves and join the conversation with the Founders Network investor community.
