SquadS ventures is a distinctive company builder focusing on the creation of sustainable and bootstrapped startups. Our model is centered on developing a portfolio of 20 high-growth potential B2B SaaS startups, characterized by their efficient use of resources. With a collective experience of 90 years in entrepreneurship, bootstrapping, fundraising, learning from both successes and failures, our team of four founders brings a wealth of knowledge to the table. Our experience extends to angel investing and participation within a Venture Capital (VC) firm, equipping us with a comprehensive understanding of the startup ecosystem. Our value propositions are tailored to meet the needs of various stakeholders: For Junior Founders: We operate as a Founders Builder, offering a hands-on learning experience in entrepreneurship alongside us. Over a two-year period, participants progress through roles as an Intern, Operator in Residence, and Entrepreneur in Residence. The top performers are then positioned to take on leadership roles within portfolio startups that they have contributed to developing and which have demonstrated traction. For Corporations: We offer a novel format for innovation through partnerships that begin from defining pain points to commercial synergies. Once Product-Market Fit (PMF), tech validation, team, and synergies are confirmed, there is an opportunity for corporations to acquire strategic startups for their businesses. For Investors: Our model focuses on Early Exits, aiming for a 6x return for initial investors and a return of the initial capital in less than four years. This approach establishes a different Asset Class, offering excellent risk management for Angel Investors. Our Values -Build Trust -Build Teams -Build Value -Build Community At SquadS Ventures, our mission is to revolutionize the way startups are built, providing a robust platform for growth, innovation, and investment success.
