from Chris Kong

Hello, I'm Chris.

I invest in founders with bold ideas at the earliest stages—from rockets and airplanes to AI/ML. For founders, I aim to be more than just an investor; I offer comprehensive support during the critical early stages of your startup.

This includes everything from fundraising to strategic business advice.

For investors, we seek founders with technical brilliance and a proven ability to execute, iterate, and communicate effectively. We leverage our extensive industry and academic experts network to source and critically evaluate each investment.

My deep financial background enriches our fund's strategy, enabling a comprehensive evaluation of opportunities and risks across all capital stages—from non-dilutive grants and venture capital to debt financing and public market exits/M&As.
