What Founders Factory funds
A London-headquartered studio and accelerator that runs almost everything with a corporate partner: Aviva in fintech, Rio Tinto in mining tech, HSBC in industrials. That makes the accelerator a set of separate programs with their own cheques and deadlines, while the studio is one continuous front door for founders who want to co-found from scratch.
Everything Founders Factory funds →Details
You work with a dedicated team of designers, marketers and engineers to validate the concept, build an MVP and win first customers, then raise and hire. Studio partners published at the time of reading are Aviva in London (fintech), Vonovia in Berlin (proptech), Mediobanca in Milan (fintech), Pico in Singapore (media and live events) and Fastweb in Milan (media and telecoms), so the sector you can build in depends on which partner fits. Applications go through a Typeform.
