Pear VC

Activity from announced rounds

Activity in this selectionAI

Pear VC invests at the earliest stages and operates PearX, a 12-week programme for pre-seed founders with investments of $500,000 to $2 million per company.

PearX teams relocate to the San Francisco Bay Area for the programme and work with a partner matched to their sector. Two cohorts run each year, while funding and work with accepted teams can begin before the cohort starts.

Pear’s talent and go-to-market teams help with first hires and customers. Fundraising preparation and investor introductions sit alongside one-to-one partner work, giving a founding team support for the operating milestones leading into its next round.
