Calling for Co-founders for a venture in our portfolio

Redefining Virtual Assistance for the Modern Business

Small and medium-sized businesses, founders, and busy professionals often struggle to find reliable, skilled, and well-trained virtual assistants who can help them stay productive and focused on what truly matters.

This startup is reimagining how businesses source, onboard, and manage virtual assistants with a human-first, quality-driven approach that blends trust, efficiency, and long-term value.

We understand that a lack of qualified support staff and inefficient delegation systems can severely hinder business operations and scalability.

Our mission is simple

: Connect vetted, skilled virtual assistants with individuals and companies that need them helping both sides work smarter, grow faster, and achieve more.

We are assembling our founding team to shape this vision

.

These are equity-only roles for individuals who think like founders, move with purpose, and are excited to co-create a scalable and impactful business.
