Investment Thesis

Expa operates under the philosophy of ‘Where Ideas Expand Into Ventures’ - transforming early-stage ideas into category-defining companies through hands-on support. The firm takes companies from 0 to 10,000, providing not just capital but design, operational support, and a comprehensive ecosystem of resources. Their approach emphasizes building alongside founders rather than traditional venture investing.

What Sets Them Apart

  • Studio model combining 'Design, operational support, and capital' rather than capital alone
  • 'By builders for builders' team approach - hands-on support from experienced entrepreneurs
  • Internal tool innovation: Metabase originated as an internal Expa tool before spinning out
  • Proven track record taking companies from 0 to 10,000
  • Portfolio of 150+ companies across multiple industries and geographies
  • Founder-centric support with dedicated operational teams for each portfolio company
