Hey founders if you’re early, they’ll have your back. @BraytonKey, @AdamDraper, @MaddieCallander & the entire @BoostVC team. Disclosure: they backed @fairmint seven years ago. We wouldn’t be where we are today without them 🫡
The #1 reason VCs pass on great founders: “You’re too early.” We want @BoostVC to be the place those founders go. First yes. First check. Nothing is too early.

Align incentives for growth and success! 📈
