Antler

Antler is a global early-stage VC firm that partners with exceptional founders from day zero to build impactful, scalable companies.

Antler is one of the most active early-stage investors globally. The firm leads in ‘Day Zero’ investing, an approach to venture capital focused on partnering with founders pre-launch. Antler systematically removes capital and network constraints for early-stage technology entrepreneurs by providing co-founder matching, deep business model validation, initial capital, expansion support, and follow-on funding. The firm is present in 27 cities across most leading technology ecosystems globally and has made over 1,300 investments into early-stage startups. Antler has been repeatedly recognized by Pitchbook as the world’s most active angel and seed-stage investor.

Antler was founded on the belief that people innovating is the key to building a better future. We partner with exceptional founders across six continents to launch and scale startups tackling meaningful global challenges.

With offices in 27 cities—including New York, London, Berlin, Singapore, Tokyo, and Sydney—we back founders from all backgrounds, often from the very beginning of their journey, even before they have a team or idea.
