Weekend Fund

In October, we announced open applications to become a Weekend Partner at @weekendfund. Over 500 people applied. Today, we're introducing 10 founders and builders in our inaugural cohort.

It’s official—I’m now a GP at Weekend Fund! I believe “career” is just a construct. What we really have is time—and the projects and people we choose to spend it on. I’m very happy to have spent the last 5+ years working with @rrhoover , and alongside our founders, LPs, and co-investors at Weekend Fund. And, now I get to do even more (and hopefully, better!) as a GP.

Signature Block is one of my favorite newsletters for early to mid-career founders and investors. You know @rrhoover and @vedikaja_in have engendered a lot of trust in the community because each edition features insights from names you know on the record.

Investing can take you down some wild rabbit holes. @Julian, thanks for introducing us to @GillVerd. 🙏🏼

See! You can do a lot in a weekend.

Introducing synthetic Ryan. He has something to share.

Yesterday we published a piece on VC fund stacks on @signatureblock_. Here's ours...

The next @signatureblock_ essay is hitting inboxes shortly. It's 5,732 words. Whoops. 😅

"Who lives in SF and plays Padel?" ;)

Request for startup: Comply or die weekend.fund/request-for-st… I.e. Compliance tools and infra to ensure companies aren't fined or imprisoned out of existence 😬

At @weekendfund we aren't trying to predict the future. That's hard. Instead, we look for founders that have a unique insight on a problem worth solving. But, we have opinions. Here's a living doc of spaces we’re excited to invest in: weekend.fund/request-for-st…

"2%+ GP commit isn’t necessarily required. 27.5% committed 1% or less." We can put one in the win column for lowering barriers to VC. thanks @weekendfund//@signatureblock_ for the data

We're building an experienced, mission-driven team @TrueMedPayments -- and looking for one more senior software engineer. We will wire $10,000 to whoever refers the person we hire. We'd much rather give this $ to this community than recruiters. Email team@truemed.com More👇

Perhaps our wackiest portfolio co 🫶

Trying something new: Founders, if your early-stage startup's core KPI (revenue, active users, etc.) is growing 30%+ MoM for 6+ months and you'd like a ~$300K check from @weekendfund, DM me. :)

An "unsexy" space for you to explore on the weekend. Enjoy!

We just returned Weekend Fund’s first fund today. 😊 1x DPI is far from its end state but it’s a big milestone for us. Feels good to pay our LPs back.
