Science Fair Fund invests at pre-seed and seed in companies founded by ISEF and STS alumni. Fund I: $5M target | $2.5M minimum close | $10M hard cap | $50K standard entry | up to $100K initial or early exposure in strongest-evidence opportunities | 40-company core. A $500K adaptive sleeve can top up the highest-confidence companies or add qualified positions when the pipeline is unusually deep. We target about 1% initial ownership when round terms permit. Capital above the $5M target is intended primarily for pro rata in the highest-scoring portfolio companies. Our sourcing and diligence platform tracks 55,084 verified alumni and 459 VC-investable alumni-founded companies. In the mature 2006-2020 funded cohort, 70% reached Series A+, 28.7% reached a documented $100M+ outcome, and 15.3% reached $1B+. Current investments include eGlint, NeoSplice Therapeutics, and Apacendo Health.

I joined ClimateAi as a late co-founder when the company was pre-product and pre-revenue. My job was to help ClimateAi go zero-to-one and establish product-market-fit in the agriculture vertical (and then subsequent verticals).

Podcast host interviewing guests on the topic of "High Velocity R&D". Technology is invading other traditional “hard” industries like agriculture, medicine, space, etc. These frontiers require building products at the intersection of software, hardware, and science. However, many of the best practices for lean, iterative product development assume you’re only working with software. They break down under the constraints of hardware and science. So, how do you build new products and achieve product-market fit at the frontiers of technology (when you don’t have a Bell-labs size budget and endless time)? What are the new rules people are figuring out?
