Our Approach

We work with ambitious founders to build and fund startups that customers, employees and investors love.

Our flexible investment model gives you the perfect mix of funding, competence and mentoring, uniquely tailored to your startup.

Your extended team

Having founded and exited several companies ourselves, we know what it takes. Our experienced team of experts in brand, strategy, technology and design, become an extended part of your startup team and help to increase value from day one.

We increase the likelihood of your startup’s success by investing competence through sweat equity:

  • Assisting with business development, go-to-market and fund raising.
  • Assisting with brand and design through our sister company The Brand Project.
  • Assisting with technology projects through our sister company Oslo Code Lab.

We share the risk, and get paid in shares.
