Backing Minds

Sweden

Description

We see great investment opportunities in the blind spots of traditional venture capital, created by stereotypical and homogenous investment patterns. We look for potential in people and ideas with markets that don’t match the traditional investor template and thus have been overlooked or undervalued based on unfounded grounds. Thereby, we drive important change to democratize a traditional, biased industry, whilst achieving significant returns. We are industry agnostic and specifically look to identify forgotten or upset customer groups as well as verticals that are overlooked by other investors. We love the future shapers and disruptors of traditional industries, that solves a real problem which is yet to be acknowledged.
