most interested in

When we invest, we can help startups to hire engineers. We can do this because we run the world's largest programmer conference with a community of 125,000+.

not interested in

We typically co-invest alongside other larger seed fund and VCs since our check doesn't provide enough runway on its own. The best types of startups for us to meet come from referrals from other investors who need quality co-investors in their rounds, or from startups who have a round that needs additional participants to complement their lead investor..
