Focus Areas

New Stack invests broadly across sectors and categories with an emphasis on B2B SaaS, Fintech, Supply Chain, Cyber, Proptech, Healthcare, and eCommerce.

Philosophy

At New Stack, we invest in outsiders. Our startups don't look like what's commonly funded in Silicon Valley. The standard formula of Stanford educated, Google trained, Bay Area-located is NOT what we're looking for. We believe in mission-driven founders with an irrational commitment to their cause --regardless of location or circumstance.

Themes that we look for include:

TRACTABLE: Tools that give non-experts, expert capabilities
UGV: Platforms that empower users to generate value
ACCESS TO IDLE SUPPLY: Activating idle capacity
TROJAN HORSE: Targeted beachhead provides access to broader opportunity
NETWORK EFFECTS: Value increases as users increase
BD INNOVATION: Customer acquisition strategy is as novel as the product
COMPETING W/ NON-CONSUMPTION: Turning non-consumers into consumers
MOUNTING LOSS: As individual usage increases, switching costs increase
