About

We believe Web3 is the next generation of the internet. Blockchain technology is enabling business efficiencies and virtual experiences that were once unimaginable, and are now permeating throughout all industries on Earth and beyond.

Investment approach

Thesis
Outshine Ventures strives to be the partner of choice for early-stage founders who are solving complex, real-world problems, and who are passionate about building the next generation of the internet. We are inspired by founder dedication, perseverance, and creativity, as well as, elegant technical designs and innovative products with simple, clean, and intuitive user experiences. Our goal is to discover and help build sustainable businesses alongside humble founders that are disrupting Web2, practice responsible growth, have the ability to generate significant demand, have a strong customer pipeline, and have realistic revenue models and token models (where applicable). While we are excited by businesses with real token use cases, we are mindful that not all Web3 startups and applications require decentralization or a token. Therefore, we remain focused on companies that are solving real problems, generating significant user demand, and building a sustainable business, regardless of the need for a token. Furthermore, we do not recommend incorporating a token into a business model unless it contributes to the startup's core value proposition, or is imperative for the operation of a blockchain.Source (opens in a new tab)
