The Founder-Led Fund.

Founders Investing In, And Supporting Founders

A model in statistics that is intended to predict future outcomes.

We put founders first

because we have been in your shoes as founders and CEOs.

We scaled and sold companies,

and have experience as corporate senior executives following our acquisitions.

We are passionate about supporting entrepreneurs

and their companies – helping them build, lead and scale.

The R-Squared LP network

is composed of over 80 leading industry founders, executives and venture capitalists.

People.

Passion.

Potential.

We support founders executing on real problems, with a big vision, in a sizable market, disrupting ‘how things are done’. And we’re always there for founders with their daily dilemmas and challenges as they start, run and scale their companies.
