Why are we called 1001 VC?

650 + 305 + 46 = 1001

Our fund's name represents bridging 3 key ecosystems.​

650 - Silicon Valley        305 - Miami       46 - Sweden

We are a US-based fund with a presence in Miami and Silicon Valley. We have a strong relationship with Startups in Stockholm, Sweden so our name incorporates all 3.
