Ahead of the pack
An exceptionally professional experience — transparent throughout, with a swift decision and honest, constructive feedback. Found Capital is a benchmark others in the industry would do well to follow. A stark contrast to investors who offer nothing more than silence or superficial responses.
First Class Engagement
I approached Found Capital for early stage EIS qualifying investment for my business. Their application processes, engagement, and feedback have been first class and by far the best I have experienced. My thanks go to Laurence and the Found Capital team. Keep it up! Regards, Jim Walker

Incredible feedback
Incredible feedback, responsive. Not like other investors
Good alignment of diligence process, very professional.
The flow of the application was professional, balanced and accurate. Deep due diligence but not too deep to be exhaustive. It aligns the most important factors in every business to enable coordinating expectations from first step. This high bar enables efficient time usage for both sides. Moreover, FoundCapital are not fluffing. They are doing what they declare: I got a feedback withing the 10-14 days reply. Most importantly, the feedback, despite not moving forward, was insightful, respectful, and professional.
Proper feedback from the founder
It was a no for our company but Laurence the founder got back promptly and with clear constructive feedback, a rarity in the VC/investor game! Recommend engaging them.
