Walking Ventures

Walking Ventures is a London-based seed fund led by an entrepreneur who knows how hard startups are. The firm targets big markets and teams with traction who can build moats. They invest in Internet and mobile startups with big ambitions and strong teams, typically being the first professional money in. The fund focuses on honest, hardworking, fast-moving people with growth mindsets who have achieved concrete, measurable traction on limited resources. They look for nine-figure opportunities with strong barriers to entry—preferring network effects, IP, and regulation. They like SaaS, platforms, marketplaces and tools, and prefer businesses whose users pay for their service. The firm aims to lead rounds, take board seats, and be helpful minority investors, providing money, support, connections, and shared learning from other founders.
