Investment Thesis

better ventures is built on the conviction that entrepreneurs are the driving force to build a better world. They believe the majority of the next 1,000 unicorns will be purpose-driven, fueled by customer demand and regulation. They operate on the principle that ‘Impact = Opportunity,’ combining financial returns with measurable positive impact on people and planet. As they state: ‘The world urgently needs ambitious founders who tackle its biggest challenges - you are our heros.’

What Sets Them Apart

  • Angel club model pooling 100+ like-minded entrepreneurs to provide collective sourcing, decision-making, and support power
  • Founded and run by successful entrepreneurs (founders of Flaconi, Flaschenpost, Kartenmacherei, everdrop, McMakler, etc.) who understand startup challenges
  • Technology-enabled community platform providing proprietary access and intelligence with AI-backed collective decision-making
  • Founders invest directly without bundling on cap table, maintaining flexibility and founder agency
  • Lean, founder-friendly investment process (typically 6 weeks) with genuine value-add from members with relevant expertise
  • Focus on early-stage (pre-seed and seed) where they can have greatest impact
  • Customized impact KPI tracking tailored to each startup rather than rigid 'one fits all' metrics
