Angel Fellowship (ODA5)
2021
Our mission is to help more people start better startups.
ODF is a program we created over four years ago to help those at the exploration stage of starting a company. So far, weve helped over 1000 companies get started and raise over $2 billion.
Starting a company is really exciting, but there are so many things you need to figure out in order to actually build one.
- "Who might I start my company with?"
- “What might we build?”
- “Who might our initial customers be?”
- “Should we raise funding soon, or should we try to bootstrap in the beginning?"
These and many more questions are what we refer to as the "missing pieces"—the things you need to figure out to know if starting a company is right for you and what company you should ultimately build.
With ODF, we bring together 80 to 100 people who are at the very same stage as you. Theyre all exceptionally talented, and theyre all trying to figure it out together.

At Behind Genius Ventures, we believe in the business value of storytelling. We prioritize founders who demonstrate strong storytelling capabilities. We take a people-oriented approach to investing and the evaluation of founders. We maintain a proudly generalist investing thesis in order to stay flexible and adapt as the market changes, allowing us to back the best and brightest founders. As a firm with a solo GP, we want to feel strong conviction in the founder’s problem-solution. We value autonomy in our decision-making process, and hope our investment becomes a signal to other investors. If there’s one X factor the companies we back share in common, it’s that design and beauty are valued alongside functional products.
Paige Finn Doherty is the Managing Partner of Behind Genius Ventures, an early-stage venture capital firm that leans into the power of storytelling to back timeless companies building the future of work and play. Previously, Paige spent time at WorkOS as a Developer Success Engineer and TVC Capital, a B2B software-focused growth equity firm. She has written a children’s book about venture capital called Seed to Harvest, and now hosts a podcast by the same name. One of the youngest female solo GPs in the world, she was the 2022 Forbes Under 30 Standout for Venture Capital.
