Tundra Ventures

Tundra finds and de-risks the opportunities other funds can’t see. Our early-stage fund brings accelerator guidance to anti-fragile entrepreneurs, using proven methods to build operators of the future faster and smarter. Building on cultural strengths of grit, pragmatism, and coachability, we tap unique pre-pipeline to the other $.4T opportunity in tech, CPG, and healthcare.

We welcome Amanda N. Heyman from Tundra Ventures to our platform. 

Tundra invests in pre-seed founders with unique insights into untapped markets in the areas of wealth, health and resilience. Spotting earliest of early founders is their superpower and they look for the most relentless, grittiest, and customer-focused founders perfectly matched to solve for big, ugly pain points in unexplored markets.

We love that and we are looking forward to working together!

"A founder who wants to succeed in attracting investment dollars needs to show (among other things): 

1) a path to exponential scale, 

2) a product with the potential to scale without an enormous corresponding increase in costs (this is why so many investments go to technology companies), and 

3) options for the eventual “exit” of the company. An exit usually means the founder sells the startup to another larger company or the startup “IPOs,” meaning it goes public on the stock market.

If you aren’t selling this kind of vision, most investors won’t be interested. 

To be clear, this isn’t a reflection on you or your business. Startup investors are playing the “go big or go home” game. If that’s not your strategy, that’s okay! Don’t sell a vision that you don’t actually want to execute."

Amanda N. Heyman, Managing Partner at Tundra Ventures, shares why it's important to sell the right vision and then back it up with receipts if you want to bring other people’s money into your business.

During a startup showcase in our NYC office, I sat in on a panel about future-proofing Main Street businesses. Helpful insight from three startups we work with – GenEQTY, ShearShare, Inc., and Goodfynd: Small biz isn’t a monolith … if corporations and banks want to partner, they need to understand their specific segments, whether that’s food trucks, hair salons, retailers, etc. 
 
Another good takeaway: all these startups build their products based off what their small-business customers said they needed – key to stay close and respond to that customer.
