Investment thesis

Angular Ventures is an inception-stage venture capital firm backing determined technical founders in Europe and Israel who are solving complex problems in hard-to-crack markets. The firm focuses on 'hard tech for hard markets' — enterprise-oriented, deep-technology companies with global ambition and a planned US go-to-market focus from day one. Angular invests in a concentrated portfolio of roughly 8 companies per year, typically leading or co-leading the first institutional round, often before product, revenue, or even company formation. The firm's core criteria are: enterprise orientation (B2B only), meaningful technical barriers to entry, founders originating from Europe or Israel, and a truly global opportunity. Angular emphasises high-conviction, long-term partnership — being 'fully invested' rather than merely investing — and provides hands-on platform support to help portfolio companies scale into the US market.

Notable quotes

While this fund announcement is a meaningful milestone in our journey of building a firm, we know that a fund announcement is of little consequence to the founders battling every day in the trenches. What we believe matters, however, is the way we are approaching the venture business and how we build partnerships with founders.

Gil Dibner and David Peterson · Angular Ventures — Announcing our $125M Fund III (angularventures.com/essays/15) · 2025-02-03

In this market, capital is not scarce, but care and concern and genuine emotional and intellectual engagement are rare and precious. At Angular, we only invest when we are emotionally and intellectually prepared to be fully invested for the life of the company.

Gil Dibner · Back to Basics: My VC Manifesto (angularventures.com/essays/17)

We are most comfortable being the very first investor in a startup, especially in cases where no other investor is willing to move. That is where we can add the most value as coaches, sparring partners, advisors, cheerleaders, and force multipliers. This is what having a venture firm as a true partner means to us. It's not just about investing, it's about being fully invested as a VC in the companies we back.
