Founders, LPs, and Collaborators Say

You meet a lot of investors and you know right away who you want in your tribe. Stepchange are the people that we wanted—they're the people that you actually want to have conversations with, that you can really talk through details and product and market and everything else that a founder has to figure out, but in a way that you can be honest.

I can't speak enough to how helpful Stepchange has been. They genuinely want founders to succeed and provides them with the help needed to navigate the earliest stages of their journey with the rare combination of humility, kindness, and curiosity. Ben and Anay are the people you want on your team when you feel like you're onto something and want to accelerate.

What I really look forward to is that the three of us combined can come up with, at least, a smattering of our product org.

There are people that you are happy to have on your cap table and there are people that you should run to have on your cap table and Stepchange is decidedly in the latter category. I think that is an advantage both for the fund and for the entrepreneurs that you will work for going forward.

One of the things that I've loved about looking at companies with you is how you as an investor are able to look at an opportunity holistically. I particularly appreciate that you're able to connect with a founder, build relationships and look at an opportunity in a people oriented way too. Every time I introduce a founder to Stepchange in general, you will make me look so good having made that introduction.

We're thrilled and very excited for the future of Stepchange and grateful to be able to partner with you as an anchor LP in the fund, thought partner, and as a co-investor.
