Portfolio

Between 2012 and 2015 JFDI invested in 70 very early stage startup businesses, all at the pre-seed stage. We invited open applications from startups around the world and selected 4% of applicants for our JFDI accelerate program. After that program, more than 50% of the teams selected secured seed funding averaging around USD400k. Two years later, around 20% of the seed funded teams raised at least one follow-on round. The earliest vintage of JFDI investee companies returned 29% IRR to investors.

We split the portfolio into Growing Ventures, Acquired Businesses and a Deadpool of great teams whose ideas just didn’t find product-market fit before their cash runway ended. Within each segment companies are listed with the JFDI cohort in which they graduated indicated in brackets.
