Overview

Quake is a venture capital fund with offices in the U.S. and Europe. 

Quake looks to build startup ecosystems and enhances innovation across multiple industry verticals and geographies.  We have a strong affinity for AdTech, AgTech, AR / VR, Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain, Cellular Communications (5G), Computer Vision, Cybersecurity, Energy, Esports, Healthtech, Infrastructure, SaaS, Social Media, Logistics, Machine Learning, Manufacturing, Marketplaces, MedTech, Robotics, and Transportation.  They serve all geographies, but often seek value in underserved areas.

Their goal is to merge investment capital with intense hands-on training and leadership development. By building the right ecosystems, they can rapidly accelerate pre-seed and seed stage companies, often producing 9 to 12 months’ worth of growth over the course of a three-month growth program.  In terms of what they look for - they focus heavily on traction (50%), team (30%) and market opportunity (20%).

Quake and its corporate partners typically invest $100k to $150k in each team that comes through the program. The accelerator acts as continued due diligence for their investor community as well as their Limited Partners who often participate in follow on investments. Their goal is to get teams ready to raise institutional capital so they can scale to become market leading companies.

Quake invests $150,000 in exchange for 5-10% equity (post-SAFE). Valuation caps are $1M-$3.5M (some exceptions possible). In addition to investment you receive: 

-$100k in web hosting credits from Google Cloud,
