Venture capital at the intersection of data science and personal founder development
Welcome to the unconventional
We are here to build a legacy with you. 432 Legacy is about helping founders with their personal journey in combination with unique market intelligence rooted in AI and data science. Capital in resonance.
We continuously analyze global market value chains to develop a complementary portfolio addressing the most pressing bottlenecks. Then, we go deep into personal development with our founders.
We invest in B2B enabling tech - pick and shovels
-
We invest in what we can see from a data pov and where intrinsic growth momentum and valuation make sense for our fund strategy. This typically occurs around the traditional seed stage
-
We invest in B2B enabling technologies that encompass: security and trust; orchestration; distribution / monetization; human-to-machine interaction and collaboration
-
We focus on global markets where these areas are experiencing constraints and bottlenecks across the board due to a myriad of factors. When ‘disruption’ takes place on a global scale and across virtually all market segments of the value chain, new foundations will be laid. B2B enabling technology companies are the plumbing of the newly established order.
-
Our preference goes to companies that solve industry bottlenecks we identified, starting at the lower end of a market (simpler adoption) or building new market-creating platforms due to their higher survivability probability.
In the fast-growing content infrastructure and distribution stack
Before we reach out, we do our homework on the market, competition, and your company’s position over time. If our system cannot gather sufficient data on your company, it is unlikely that we will be able to invest at this time. We look for strong market signals before we go deep with the founders.
An investment philosophy driven by unique market insights
Making decisions as founder-minded as they are data-guided
-
Typically 28-days from the 1st conversation to the investment decision. We can move much faster, but like to really get to know the founders.
-
Partners lead every investment and on every call except calls with coaches
-
Pre-outreach market and company diligence
Several calls with the founder(s)
1-2 calls with the team
