WHO WE INVEST IN
Divergent Investments' Focus
Philosophy and Commitment to Founders:
As entrepreneurs ourselves, Divergent knows how vital founders are to the success of a business. We intend to partner with founders to build lasting impact.
The leadership team in general is the most critical aspect of our investment review. But we also want to know what you are doing will benefit society with lasting impact and that it is hard to do. We realize some investments may result in failure but we want you to try to solve hard problems.
Finally, we take a hands-on approach to our partners, with zero red tape. We are always a phone call away to provide guidance, feedback, and resources. For smaller seed investments, investment review process moves quickly and typically make decisions in 2 weeks or less after an initial meeting. Larger investments may take up to 4 weeks but not longer.
