About

Timon Capital is a venture capital firm that backs exceptional founders with the majority of our investments at the Seed stage.

Thesis: At Timon Capital, we have tremendous respect for the entrepreneurial journey—especially in emerging markets. As former entrepreneurs, we’ve built companies and gone through the frustration of trying to manage wayward investors. We decided to hold ourselves to a higher standard and named ourselves Timon: a Greek word that means ‘the one influenced by honor’ as well as ‘fairly priced.’Source (opens in a new tab)
