Cantilever Investors Fund is an early stage investor group focused on emerging technology-based companies.  Our goal is to discover the best technologies that have compelling commercial opportunities at an early stage of development.

Our fund and associated investors lead, and invest in, seed, pre-seed or early A series financing rounds with multiple exit opportunities.  In most cases, we have worked directly with the company founders for months or years before investing, and often play active roles in the commercialization process to protect and insure our investments.

Our portfolio companies have typically performed extensive customer discovery as well as due diligence identifying a market fit and then a business model that can provide market traction. 

For our LPs,  the Fund finds, vets and develops investable early stage companies.  Our LPs often co-invest with us or invest independently in opportunities that do not match our Fund investment profile.  In each case, we have done the research, leg work and de-risking to make the opportunities available, attractive and more likely to be profitable.  We do the initial heavy lifting, so our LPs don’t have to.

 Our early checks and follow-on investments can yield high ROIs with high cash-on-cash returns.
