Stage
When we invest
The red cross marked in the diagram(s) is where we often begin our journey with founders at Stoic. At this stage, we require startups to have demonstrated proof of concept (POC) of their research.
Our goal is to partner with founders looking to transform research into catalytic technologies. These are technologies which materialise into commercially viable products at great velocity.
Our cheques range anywhere from as small as 100k to 1M.
