Investment Thesis

Metaplanet is an evergreen investment firm that backs ‘missionaries over mercenaries’—founders building safe technologies for humanity’s long-term survival and flourishing. They invest in deep tech with multi-generational impact at civilizational scale, focusing on problems that may take decades or centuries to fully manifest but could escalate overnight. The firm combines venture investment with philanthropy, using successful exits to fund grants for projects addressing existential risks that fall outside the normal venture model.

What Sets Them Apart

Evergreen fund structure with no external investors—single LP ensures full autonomy and no pressure for short-term returns
No exit deadlines, allowing founders and investors to focus on long-term impact rather than liquidity events
Founder-first approach: rare board seats, hands-off yet quick to act when needed, structural alignment with founder interests
Integrated investment and philanthropy model—successful exits fund grants for non-venture-scalable missions addressing existential risks
Focus on missionaries driven by mission, not mercenaries motivated purely by profit
Global, stage-agnostic investing (sweet spot: late Seed to Series A, but follow-on at any stage)
Small team of 'quick-thinking enablers' rather than large administrative structure
