We live in a time where we need more founders!! And the cost of building is limited by your imagination. Sometimes all it takes is $50k to go for it. So we launched the @BoostVC fellowship check. Apply for the winter check now! boost.vc/fellowship

Hey founders if you’re early, they’ll have your back. @BraytonKey, @AdamDraper, @MaddieCallander & the entire @BoostVC team. Disclosure: they backed @fairmint seven years ago. We wouldn’t be where we are today without them 🫡

The #1 reason VCs pass on great founders: “You’re too early.” We want @BoostVC to be the place those founders go. First yes. First check. Nothing is too early.

We went to the California desert with a startup building UFO detection systems. They invited a group of psychics who believe they can communicate with UFOs. It got weird. Our full documentary on @eldaeonuap and America's UFO tracking industry is out now 👇 00:00 The American

Venture capital is supposed to be risky. It’s about backing founders when most people say it's impossible. When you see a first-of-its-kind pitch, lean in. @davidhooper is building @eldaeonuap to find aliens. 👽 Proud to be an investor. @BoostVC Learn more 👇

Still amped up from a electric @BoostVC LP Day 🔥🔥🔥 Our goal for the day: have LPs get a glimpse of the future we get to see every day. @DougBernauer shared lessons from 12 years at @SpaceX and how he’s now finishing the multiplanetary mission w/ @RadiantNuclear (and his recent $750m contract!). ☢️ Three bio founders pitched on eliminating genetic diseases, rejuvenating the brain, and personalized cancer vaccines (and the fastest in history to do it!). 🧬 Then @TimDraper on why first-check investing, saying YES first, is the key innovation. 🥇 Will be tough to top this one next year. Thank you to everyone who came out! 🫶

Sometimes when a star dies, it leaves some energy behind. Our nuclear fuel is a 5 billion year old gift from the milky way. This brings new meaning to the phrase "Thank your lucky stars!"

I raised $100k with my best friend. Today we’re excited to share Parde: The First Event Bank. Banks see an event organizer and think: no assets -> no loan. But these organizers move six figures a night. The money just runs through a ticketing platform no bank can see into. Parde is the operating system organizers run on, and the bank that funds them. We funded $84k of our own capital. It returned as $193k in 3 months (2.3x Return). One ex-event organizer and one Forbes 30u30 engineer inventing the financing for the $1.2T events industry. We're very thankful to @AdamDraper and @BoostVC for backing two 19-year-old founders.
