BADideas.fund believes in backing ‘bold founders’ with contrarian ideas that initially seem like bad ideas but have significant global potential. Their philosophy is grounded in the belief that ‘all unicorns seemed like bad ideas initially’ (Paul Graham quote featured prominently). They are committed to being ‘the kind of investors we wished we had when building our own startups,’ prioritizing founder empowerment, operational support from experienced builders, and fast decision-making over traditional VC bureaucracy.
