What you likely need
You're operating at the intersection of community building (DECODE) and early-stage investing (IOVC LP, Custos board). Your strongest leverage is your founder network from the DECODE/Berkeley/Stanford pipeline — focus on converting that goodwill into proprietary deal flow and a more formalized investing thesis. Consider whether the next chapter is an operator role at a portfolio company or scaling DECODE programmatically.
Are these your current priorities?
We will tune and customize your Founder Festival experience to make sure you get invited to the events that would be most valuable to you.
- fundraisingFormalize your angel activity into a named syndicate or rolling fund so DECODE founders can access your check more easily.
- positioningPublish a personal investor page listing your IOVC portfolio involvement and Custos board role to clarify your investor brand.
- fundraisingConvert DECODE's Google/Netflix/Zoom speaker relationships into recurring corporate sponsorships to harden the nonprofit's revenue base.
- positioningLean into your Singapore/SEA bridge advantage — Custos is SG-based and your military/leasing background gives you a unique US-Asia founder pipeline angle.
- introsPitch IOVC or a top-tier firm on a formal scout program seeded from DECODE's UC Berkeley/Stanford founder community.
- tacticalTake 1-2 more independent board seats at early-stage companies to compound governance experience beyond Custos.
- positioningWrite a public investing thesis (enterprise SaaS + sustainability data, given Custos) to attract qualified inbound.
