We are Backers
From idea-stage through growth, we are fueling a new future.
We invest in entrepreneurial ideas that hold the key to creating a better future.
With three ways to invest, our goal is to put the power of technology in the hands of more people, build up communities and create things that lead to the kind of society where prosperity is widely shared. We invest in counter-cultural thinkers with ideas that do just that.
We don't just disrupt. We disrupt to democratize.
Pebble Fund
A philanthropic fund to stimulate idea-stage experimentation. Tax-deductible contributions to our Pebble Fund fuel Builders’ pre-seed stage experiments in the Idea Accelerator program. Thanks to our generous funders, we are activating thousands of new builders across the globe and turning their ideas into promising new ventures.
Community Fund
A revenue-based financing loan fund to invest in builders with promising, revenue-generating new companies. Structured as a revolving fund, this evergreen fund provides the fuel young companies need to become sustainable job-producing employers.
Cornerstone Funds
Seed-stage funds that invests in the most promising ideas, teams and technologies that demonstrate high scale potential. We invest in ventures from our Idea Accelerator, our community partners and our top-tier co-investor partners deploying both redeemable equity and traditional venture capital. And we provide additional growth-stage capital to breakout ventures in our portfolio that are rapidly scaling.
