The next generation of founders starts with you.
Flash Ventures is a day 0 investor that empowers remarkable founders to build the future.
About us
Flash is a global pre-seed fund investing into game-changing founders at the earliest of stages.
We really are, by definition and conception, a "Day 0" investor.
We are entrepreneurs. We embrace the chaos. We partner with founders from the beginning of their journey and leverage our global reach to bring an unfair advantage to the equation.
We are founder-first. Most of the people we end up working with, we actually meet at the very start of their intention of founding. We care about ambition, drive and intellect - not slides.
We can be very operational when needed, but also loose when not. Our team consists mostly of entrepreneurs and operators. We know what it takes to get from 0 to 1.
We truly care. About the people we work with. About the craziness of the entrepreneurial journey. This is why we always try to be fast, transparent and fair in our interactions.

Any questions?
Day 0 starts for us with the intention of founding. We have invested on the base of a discussion, a Figma file, prototype, sketch on a GDoc, a notion page, or napkin. We understand many things need to be figured out along the way.
We believe in meaningful cheques that move the needle for the stage & where we have skin in the game. These usually start for us at 500k USD, but we will occasionally also go lower.
We rarely participate beyond the day 0 stage for our initial ticket. However, we do support companies we work with throughout the lifecycle. Our focus - and expertise - is supporting founders to go from 0 to 1.
- We're using the quote block to create the fixed navbar instead of an ID, so it should work out of the box, but that means you can't really use the Notion quote block anywhere else throughout this template. Thinking of better ways to go about this!
- The navbar & footer are global Notion blocks, meaning if you edit the ones on the template home page, it'll carry the changes over to the rest of the site
