Ken's investment guide is my guide for tech startups looking for investment. As an angel investor 😇 in early-stage technology ventures, I focus on supporting technology-focused founders through strategic capital and accelerated development. My investment philosophy is rooted in fostering innovation, leveraging collective expertise, and building long-term value.
Beyond capital, I provide startups access to resources, expertise, and networks. The areas of assistance included technology support, interim CTO services, networking and advisory. My approach ensures that founders benefit from tangible support to both de-risk the venture and help accelerate growth.
🎯 Sector Focus: I prioritize startups operating in industries with high potential for transformation: Health and Fitness, Recruitment, Mobility and Transport, Finance and Education. These are an area of focus, but they do not exclude other industries or verticals.
🌱 Stage of Investment: My investments are exclusively at the pre-seed stage with up to $3M company valuations, with a focus on early validation and high-growth potential.
🌏 Geography: I primarily invest in startups based in Australia, New Zealand, and North America, where ecosystems for innovation and growth are robust.
💰 Ticket Size: Individual investments range up to $250K, and investments through our Collective 🔗 range up to $1M.
📄 Type of Investment: I am open to both equity at a priced round and the potential for debt deal structures.
💼 Exit Philosophy: I maintain flexibility regarding liquidity, open to participating in follow-on rounds or exploring exits aligned with the startup's growth trajectory such as when taking Venture Capital (VC) investment, visit our VC friendly page for more information 🔗
