Founders

Founders is a startup studio. Together with exceptional entrepreneurs, we build companies from scratch and scale them as independent companies when they gain traction. Whether it’s a bank for freelancers, a way to kill the pain of doing expenses or reimagining life in cities, we are always on the lookout for opportunities to improve the way people work and live. We created Founders in 2012 because we strongly believed there was a better way to build tech companies. Our vision then and now is to refine a model that enables us to co-found successive companies on a single platform that gets smarter with each success and failure. We believe in launching early and iterating fast, knowing that failing is just part of the process on the road to success.
