Initial Capital is an investor and accelerator for seed and early-stage technology companies with a focus on games, consumer services and technology enablers. We partner with world class entrepreneurs and teams to build global category winners. Based out of London and Silicon Valley, we partner with world class entrepreneurs and teams to build global category winners. We've played a key part in growing companies like Glu Mobile ($350M IPO in 2007), Playfish ($400M sale to EA in 2009) and Supercell (Finland-based global leader in iOS-based games).
Our philosophy is that early stage fund raising is a recruitment exercise by founders. As a founder, you need more than money, you need the best team around you that are not only helpful but fun to work with. We know because we've been there. If you're a world class technology startup, we'd love to talk about being partners.
