Overview

What they do
At Founders, Inc. we're quietly building the next gen. of emerging tech companies. We start companies from scratch through our venture Studio: - thirdweb ($30M raised) - buildspace ($10M raised) - Zeet ($4M raised) - Scenario ($6M raised) And we bet on early-stage builders - sometimes even before they're ready to start a company (past investments include Lexica, Levels.fyi, and more). Are you a prolific builder with an affinity for emerging tech? We'll be your first check.
