Investors · for LPs & co-investors

Small by structure. Small by choice.

divergent is a small investment firm. We run a small portfolio, write small cheques, and stay close to the companies we create and back. That shape is not a constraint, it is what lets us be in the room when it matters.

If you are a limited partner, a co-investor, or an operator thinking about where your capital might go next, this page is for you. There is not much of it. There does not need to be.

§ Approach

We invest in the ideas the world still needs. The question we ask at the start of every investment decision is simple: does the world actually need this? It does not go away once we have written a cheque. It is revisited at every stage, and the answers have to remain honest.

We work at seed and pre-Series A. Our preference is the founder building against the market's assumption that their problem is too small to matter. We operate alongside what we back, no hands-off cheques, no quarterly check-ins from a distance.

§ Letters

We publish one substantial letter a year from leadership. Quarterly updates are shared on request with current and prospective limited partners.

If you invest for the long run, and the boring parts, we would like to hear from you.
