Check size: $500K-$2M+ core investments, with some founder-residency programs using smaller initial checks.
Laura Du invests or supports investments through Afore Capital's published strategy: Invest with high conviction at day zero in ambitious founders, often before traction, product or incorporation, and help them build and raise the next round.
Show the founder superpower, insight, dynamic market, fast validation plan and why Afore should commit before conventional traction exists.
Resourceful founders with unique insights, technical or commercial superpowers, large dynamic markets and a bias for speed.
The firm is specialized in pre-seed and day-zero company building; established later-stage companies are outside the core strategy.
