Badhouse Ventures ^Investor

Badhouse Ventures is a micro-VC that invests first, Pre-Seed, and supports founding teams with beta-version software products and platforms (e.g., SaaS, AI, web3, infosec) as they work to reach product-market fit. It focuses on startups in Canada, primarily west of Toronto/Waterloo, especially near its home base of Vancouver.

The investment thesis is centred on increasing the chance of founder success by providing hands-on support by a network of former startup founders and operators.

Thematic areas of focus: "smarter communities" (the changing nature of work, environmental sustainability, etc.) and "smarter data systems" (security, traceability, decentralization, etc.).
