As "pre-seed" rounds become larger and more common, many now require a "lead" — an investor that will put in the largest check (usually at least 50% of the round). And the faster you can find a lead, the faster you can get back to building, as many angels and smaller funds won’t commit until there's a lead in place.For many founders, the faster you can find a lead, the faster you can get back to building, as many angels and smaller funds won’t commit until there's a lead in place.

That's why we put together a list of four dozen funds that consistently lead the pre-seed rounds.

If we missed anyone, please get in touch to let us know.

Our list includes: 

  • 2048 Ventures
