HUMMINGBIRD

Hummingbird is a global generalist seed investment fund, investing in Outlier Founders at the earliest stage of their journey... The best athletes win the mental game. Our contrarian line of questioning unearths the potential we are seeking in unprecedented ways. We nailed the pattern recognition on how to spot the entrepreneurs who will build category defining businesses in any given industry. We need an insane sense of urgency. We want proof that founders are unreasonable. We need founders who filter out 95% of what well-intentioned VCs bring to the table. A sort of founder missed by other VCs. Hummingbird founders... We believe outliers can be found anywhere in the world. We are a nomadic team, constantly on the move to meet teams where they are. A local support network of VCs is amazing for startups but it can lead to bubble think, provincialism, even in the Valley, and not seeing opportunities with a fresh, global perspective. Our best investments can be found on Market Street..
