General Partner, Co-Founder
1517 FundCheck size: 1517 publishes $1K grants for very early builders but does not publish a standard venture check-size range.
Danielle Strachman invests or supports investments through 1517 Fund's published strategy: Back unconventional young founders and science-driven builders before traditional credentials or institutions recognize them.
Dropouts, student hackers, makers and science-fiction-minded scientists working on hard problems at the edge of what is possible.
Credential-driven opportunities without evidence of independent building, technical curiosity or an unconventional founder advantage appear less aligned.
Lead with what you have built or discovered, why conventional paths are constraining, the hard problem, early evidence and the next experiment or company milestone.
