Foundersbacker | Empowering corporations to embrace circular innovation

Crocket's fundraising video, also saw 40 seconds, you will know you can invest, attach the fundraising link: https://www.crowdcube.com/companies/crocket/pitches/bvLG1l A good startup/company, in fact, can grow to a great extent as long as it focuses on one point. When I visited a well-known VR startup before this incident, their CEO clearly mentioned: "I basically don't work with Taiwanese startups, because almost every startup in Taiwan wants to make a car, but almost all of them can’t even make a wheel frame!” Today, we start from the four points of investing in new ventures: 1. Pain points: It may be very interesting to care about whether the toilet is beautiful or not, but I personally think that if there is a budget, I really want to have a comfortable and beautiful toilet. The design photos are attached below: 2. Solution: Focus on designing toilets, this sentence has been said, but in the fundraising video, they divided the solution into three parts: i. Product - C...

  The name CirculOil is very good. At first glance, it can be seen that it is a company that allows oil to be recycled. Just like Foundersbacker, a company that helps founders at first glance, it is a good name! We also start from the four points of investing in new ventures to analyze why I invest in CirculOil: 1. Pain points and markets: a. Pain points: 60% of the waste oil is used to burn or dumped directly, which will have a great impact on the environment. For example, when we go to maintain motorcycles or cars, the oil is usually poured into a large iron bucket, and where does it go after that? No one knows, but it feels like it's not environmentally friendly. b. Market: The current market is weeding machines, but it is expected to enter generators and industrial motors in the future. 2. Solution: There is a set of patented technologies that allow 100% complete recovery and reuse of these oils. With the fundraising video attached, I saw 1:17 and knew I was going to invest: ht...

  As suggested, we are now searching for the third co-founder for running an angel fund. This angel fund has not got a name yet, but this should be an US dollar fund. We will focus on software and e-commerce startups in both Taiwan and Indonesia.  Here are your potential profile: 1. You love high-end products, e.g. wine, jewellery, and glamping.   2. You love males  3. You have started business before 4. You have experience of startup investment (or, at least, willing to learn)

  The recent experience of close contact with new startups has led Arthur to draw an important conclusion, that is, "investment is investing in people", and the entrepreneurial project of each company must come from the story behind the founder. So I've learned a trick now, which I can also share with friends who want to be new startup consultants: There is only one secret, and that is to spend time listening to new startups with their stories. When Arthur starts to hear some ideas that are illogical at first glance, I will interrupt directly and say: "Tell me your story first, since the student days, have you been a club leader or who did you work for? How to use your time when you have a day off." Using this method allows me to understand his entrepreneurial projects in a very short period of time, and give accurate suggestions, instead of listening to him in hype, and finally giving out-of-the-box suggestions, causing both sides to complain. , feel like a was...

Foundersbacker basically refers to Lei Jun's logic. Whether it is a fund that has not yet raised to invest in new ventures, or a fund that can be invested in new ventures in the future, it is the same. The most important thing in investing in early-stage new ventures is people. Smart, talkable, Coachable, how to react when faced with difficulties, etc. So before we talk about the areas we focus on, let’s mention two founders that we will never assist or invest in: 1. Inattentive a. Do A today, do B tomorrow, and do C the day after tomorrow. Unless we have known each other for a long time and our experiences can be strung together, the scattered experiences are worse than office workers. b. It seems that I have decided to become an e-commerce business, but in fact, there are many mountains and seas, and there are obvious problems with the market positioning. For example, I have seen an e-commerce platform that sells things in it. In fact, the design personally even thinks that it is...

As shown in the title, All About The Cooks (hereinafter referred to as AC) is a private kitchen platform, which allows private chefs to have more exposure opportunities, and also allows people who want to eat delicious food to find more home-cooked dishes they want to eat. We also start from four points for evaluating new innovations: 1. Pain points: Confucius said: "Food and sexuality are human nature", that is, eating and pornography are human nature, and they are also just basic requirement. In-depth analysis, AC said that many people want to eat home-cooked food, but it is difficult for office workers to have time to cook, so they buy a lot of outside food and eat a lot of junk food. 2. Solution: Etsy for home cook is actually very clear, Esty is simply the American version of Pinkoi, a platform for handmade works, so All About The Cooks is a platform for handmade cooks. The platform takes 12.5% is actually not high, so I personally think it is attractive. In my impressio...
