Enabling and investing in the world's most exceptional people
Antler is a global early-stage VC enabling and investing in the world's most exceptional people.
We’re the world’s largest early-stage investment platform, present in 12 locations across 6 continents and have invested in 160+ companies.
Every year, 50,000 founders across the world want to work with us -- people from diverse careers such as serial entrepreneurs, engineers, product builders, subject matter pro's and PhD's.
Because of this, we are extremely selective. We only work with the top 3% out of tens of thousands of entrepreneurs every year. The founders we work with have on average 10 years’ work experience and come with deep functional or industry specific expertise. And we’re democratising entrepreneurship - meaning we work with the best founders regardless of background or geography.
That being said, we actively work to reduce risk by building superior co-founder teams, providing deep business model validation while focusing on quality over quantity. We financially support founders from day one and build a relationship as a long term investor in our companies. We're leveraging the world’s largest dataset on early-stage founder success to evaluate and support exceptional people and ideas.
