As an angel investor CEO vs CEO has one purpose only:

To help entrepreneurs scale their companies.

We love the intellectual challenges of scaling companies combined with working side by side with extraordinarily motivated and passionate individuals.

We know what it’s like to be entrepreneurs.

Unlike many other investors, we have been where you are, and we know what you want and need.
All we wanted from our investors was for them to help, guide, challenge and be there for us, so we could be the entrepreneurs.
“I wanted to create a firm based on the values I have nourished over the years.”

Product
Do we believe in the product?
Do we understand it?
Would we use or buy it?
It’s that simple.
Passion
Do the entrepreneurs have passion?
The most powerful weapon on earth is the human soul on fire!
There is no passion to be found playing small, in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.
People
When you work with people personal connection is of utmost importance.
Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence
win championships…
Perseverance
There are three choices in life:
give in,
give up,
or give it all.

We know it is the merger of these   four values into one tight-knit company that will maximize
the chances of success.
