Why join us

​
1) Community

• We enjoy connecting with people on a similar journey
• We believe in paying it forward by helping each other
• We like to share insights and learn from each other
• We love to nerd out on Vertical SaaS news and trends
• We aim to stay in the 100-300 member range: small enough to retain high engagement and quality conversations; and large enough to provide ample opportunity for relationship building and breadth of perspectives

​

2) IRL Events

• We host happy hours, dinners and retreats
• Currently in San Francisco, with more cities to come

​

3) Angel Syndicate

• We are uniquely positioned to source, underwrite and support the most promising VSaaS companies thanks to our collective experience and global network
• We have a deep conviction into the future of Vertical SaaS and a nuanced thesis thanks to our front-row seat to emerging trends and foresight into industry dynamics. Themes include:
  • Vertical AI
  • Fintech-first VSaaS
  • Virtual franchises
  • Default Pan-European plays (and consolidation)
  • Rise of Emerging markets VSaaS (with its own set of playbooks)
• We love being first check! And believe that more winners will emerge through one-and-done rounds
• Anyone in the collective is welcome to lead a deal. Unlike many syndicates, we require deal leads to have skin in the game and be transparent about their commitment
