Openseed

OpenseedVC focuses on investing first checks into experienced operators building companies at day zero, often before institutional capital shows up. The firm believes that early-stage failure is often related to team vision and execution under uncertainty, rather than just the idea itself. They aim to be the partner who leads with conviction on day zero, providing support even before traditional VCs arrive. OpenseedVC aims to invest in the next generation of world-changing technology solutions, built by exceptional operators who have the grit to navigate uncertainty in complex, emerging market environments. Maria Rotilu, Founder & General Partner, brings a background of scaling products and teams at Uber and Branch in complex, emerging market environments and also led the Oxford Seed Fund and co-led Octopus Ventures’ £10m First Cheque Fund for Europe. This experience has shaped her conviction that early-stage failure is often not about the idea; it is about team vision and execution under uncertainty. Openseed invests in outlier tech operators with unusually fast execution speed, obsessed domain experts with a bias for action, and serial founders with a track record of starting and scaling startups and innovations. The fund emphasizes providing conviction and support during the fragile early stages of execution, when even small, "day zero" decisions can compound into either massive scale or structural failure. OpenseedVC's operator network provides support from seasoned operators across Software Engineering, Product, People, and Go-To-Market.
