What We Do
We are a group of serial entrepreneurs and investors who have raised Millions of Dollars from the TOP VCs in the world, chasing the unicorn valuation – Been there, Done that. We believe there is far too much focus on creating a 100x outcomes (which has it’s entitlement) and not nearly enough on empowering entrepreneurs to build profitable and sustainable businesses.
Our mission is to maximize the number of successful businesses and entrepreneurs in the world through founder-friendly terms, capital, best-in-class resources, mentorship and a proven process.
We are incubating new ideas with stand out founders across a number of different industries (Proptech, Hospitality, Retail, Tech, Health, Education, etc) and modes (EXIT focused, bootstrapped/profitable). We’re in the business of keeping our co-founders in business. We love incubating companies or invest early in profitable businesses and work like a swiss-army knife co-founder, from start to finish.
Sustainable
We are optimizing for sustainable pace of growth and businesses that make more money than they spend and aren't chasing growth at all costs. We want to maximize chances of success & build for the long-term. real businesses.
Profitable
We strongly believe in the need for “funding for bootstrappers”. All our portfolio companies have a clear path to profitability within 6-12 months with strong margins and unit economics.
Capital Efficient
We invest up to EUR 250k per business where the first check is the last check. We are not the best fit investors for founders who have a business plan of raising millions more in capital.
No Outlier Focus
Our companies can raise VC money but we are not depending on outlier success like VCs. We're in the business of keeping you in business with a low to zero failure rate.
Stage
We love true partnership and join our businesses as co-founder or managing director. Our passion is incubating or joining very early stage.
Entrepreneurs
We collaborate with both first-time founders and seasoned entrepreneurs. What truly matters to us is attitude, long-term commitment, passion, and cultural alignment.
How We Do It
Building a successful startup requires a mix of experience, talent, perseverance, execution, adaptability, timing, luck, team, and support. While ideas are important, a strong team is crucial for success.
Our focus is on building “boring” businesses – niche, profitable ventures. This is challenging but rewarding. Boring Ventures develops and refines ideas with matching founders, and we welcome teams or individuals interested in incubation.
We have developed a proven playbook for ideating, validating, and building new businesses. We are open to various collaboration models. We create our own ideas and seek out founders who are a perfect match for them, and we also welcome teams or individual entrepreneurs who are interested in incubating their ideas with us.
