News is out: Alma raised $5.1m to revolutionize immigration!

While TechCrunch spotlights my story, my brilliant co-founders, Assel Tuleubayeva and Shuo Chen, also faced significant immigration hurdles. Our shared experiences fueled our mission to simplify U.S. immigration.

We're thrilled to embark on this journey with our incredible partners: Bling Capital, Forerunner, Village Global, NFX, Conviction, MVP Ventures, New Enterprise Associates (NEA) and Silkroad Innovation Hub!

A heartfelt thank you to our day-one supporters and, most importantly, to all the immigrants trusting Alma with their American dream. Your faith in us drives our innovation!

Congratulations SpaceWERX & Orbital Prime awardee Rebel Space Technologies on advancing cybersecurity in space! 🛰 📡 🇺🇲

Being an angel can at times feel like you’re on your own island.

Last week we hosted our second annual Angel Island — where independent angels and fund managers connected with fellow early-stage investors and swapped insights about what’s happening in the market. 

Some topics of note:
• Even before managers do reference checks on founders, the quality and seniority of their provided references can speak volumes. 
• As angels write bigger checks, there is more expectation from founders that the angels will be hands-on. 
• Many personal investors are electing not to transition to professional fund managers to retain flexibility around pacing and pricing, and given the tougher LP market.
• Some sectors like cyber don’t have a winner take all profile; many funds can return 3x-4x DPI without marquee exits or an IPO. 
• Make sure your founders have a process or routine in place to help them endure for a very long game. One manager talked about the work he did to have a 13+ year career in the NFL; there are analogies between athletic prep and founder prep.

Some hotter takes we overheard:
• Help companies that are winning. It’s ok to not help the failing companies. Don’t throw good money at bad signal.
• There was a fair amount of discussion re: the upside/downside of telling a founder that they should stop pursuing their idea, and the challenge of whether to back a great founder with a so-so idea.

At the end of the day we heard from Guillermo Rauch from Vercel, who spoke passionately about open source frameworks, design engineering, and why he’s long on Bitcoin. 

At the core of Village Global’s investing ethos is a deep belief in the power of network. We were delighted to produce the event with our friends over at GIC.

A big part of investing in yourself as a founder is strengthening the clarity of your strategy and the quality of your support network for the journey ahead. Over the course of our recent 3-day Villager retreat, we gained insights, we made friends, we cold plunged, and we left with more energy, more clarity, and of course, more Village swag ;)

Proud to back Xinchen Wang and David Phizicky! Waypoint Bio is leveraging spatial biology to turbocharge pooled screening, allowing more efficient drug discovery! 🚀

Thank you Guillermo Rauch for sharing big-picture wisdom & actionable tips with Village Global founders and network investors.  Great to partner with Chloe Breider & Chris Emanuel on this convening!
