Investment Thesis

Core91 is an early-stage fund that invests in ‘outlier ideas and ambitious founders.’ They position themselves as long-term partners in the founder journey, using cricket metaphors to describe their support approach: “We will be the sounding boards, connectors, evangelists and critiques to help you perform your best.” Rather than solving problems for founders, they provide guidance, network access, and strategic support as founders mature through different growth stages.
