The concept.

PointSquared Ventures is a private investment firm dedicated to building and growing seed-stage companies in Technology, Energy, and Infrastructure.

PointSquared Ventures' mission is to back visionary founders and talented operating partners with exceptional track records in our core markets. PointSquared's approach is twofold - (1) We invest in pre-seed and seed-stage startups early, and (2) We form the startups ourselves by identifying founders to launch and build products and services that make an impact.

Being self-funded, we are not under pressure to immediately return capital to outside investors. We patiently look to build long term value one investment at a time.

The founder.
