Pitchdrive is a radical break from traditional early-stage investing. We want to get funding in the hands of great founders as soon as we can - in weeks, not months. Because entrepreneurs should focus on building a company, not on talking to investors. With our data-driven engine, we can qualify seed-stage ventures faster than anyone on the market. This allows us to make seed-stage investing scalable for founders and investors.

Leaf stands for Let's Expand A Forest, how can we green the space around us with easy and well designed solutions. In our Leaf Factory, we design and produce different pieces of furniture all include a Leaf bassin filled with our plants. The tropical plants are grown in a tray at our partner VDE plant and come in two sizes. The Leaf medium tray for all our tropical and outside plants, the Leaf small tray for small tropical plants and mostly edible crops. Our furniture can be placed in your office, hotel or restaurant as stand on/alone, hanging from ceiling or wall, included with growing lights when it is too dark. We developed furniture for keeping edible herbs including an complete circular herb model. Ordering the trays at your wholesaler bringing back the harvested ones to the grower. We think beLEAF in expanding that forest so for selling every 5 medium trays we donate one tree to grow somewhere in Europe. Regreening the city is needed, but also regreening the rest of our world.
