Investment Thesis

Iterative believes that the best way to support founders and increase the GDP of Southeast Asia is through a founder-led community approach. They view their 12-week program as more than capital deployment—it’s structured guidance from experienced founders who have built successful companies. Their core philosophy is that founders improve startups more effectively than money alone, and that participation in their program will increase a company’s average outcome by more than 11% (the threshold needed to justify dilution).
