Supporting Founders as They Grow and Build Capacity for Leadership at Precursor Ventures
At Precursor Ventures, we work primarily with early stage teams, many of whom were at the prototype or early traction stage when we first invested. When I was fundraising for Precursor Ventures Fund I, one of the most frequent questions I got asked was how we could support a relatively large number of investments with a very small operation. It’s something I thought about quite a bit before starting the fund. With the benefit of time in market and some investments under my belt, I have a much better sense about how to articulate the support model at Precursor.
Welcome to Precursor!
We are excited to be up and running and look forward to sharing more with you soon! In the meantime, please check out our AngelList profile for more details.
