In Q3, @BoostVC invested in 12 (slow summer 😂) new Deep Tech companies 💰

6 of those we were the FIRST VC who said YES 🥇

Looking for more Deep Tech founders in Q4 looking for their first YES 🚀

[Adam Draper ⏻ @AdamDraper]

We live in a time where we need more founders!! And the cost of building is limited by your imagination.

Sometimes all it takes is $50k to go for it. So we launched the @BoostVC fellowship check.

Apply for the winter check now!

2 @BoostVC companies finished at the top for YC’s G2 Showcase!! Congrats to both the Axonnic and SPM teams! 🥇🥈

[Patrick Joyce @joycesticks]

Tbh so proud to be backed by @BoostVC - these guys have their finger on the pulse of America! Be the cockroach!

[Joris🤗 @Joris_DLN]

Hey founders
if you’re early, they’ll have your back. @BraytonKey, @AdamDraper, @MaddieCallander & the entire @BoostVC team.

Disclosure: they backed @fairmint seven years ago. We wouldn’t be where we are today without them 🫡

[Gus Domel ⏻ @GusDomel]

At @BoostVC, we aren’t afraid to back the boldest and wildest ideas. @davidhooperr and the @eldaeonuap team are a great example of that. Excited to be working with them 🌌

[Brayton Williams ⏻ @BraytonKey]

Venture capital is supposed to be risky.

It’s about backing founders when most people say it's impossible. When you see a first-of-its-kind pitch, lean in.

@davidhooper is building @eldaeonuap to find aliens. 👽

Proud to be an investor. @BoostVC

Still amped up from a electric @BoostVC LP Day 🔥🔥🔥

Our goal for the day: have LPs get a glimpse of the future we get to see every day.

@DougBernauer shared lessons from 12 years at @SpaceX and how he’s now finishing the multiplanetary mission w/ @RadiantNuclear (and his recent $750m contract!). ☢️

Three bio founders pitched on eliminating genetic diseases, rejuvenating the brain, and personalized cancer vaccines (and the fastest in history to do it!). 🧬

Then @TimDraper on why first-check investing, saying YES first, is the key innovation. 🥇

Will be tough to top this one next year. Thank you to everyone who came out! 🫶

Thanks for an electric interview @JasonGrohowski

Favorite quote of mine:
"I called @brian_armstrong from the toilet, and said 'I'm in', and he said 'For how much' and I said 'I'm not sure'"

Radiant Nuclear just won the largest government contract for nuclear reactors.

Real money for reactors!

[Brayton Williams ⏻ @BraytonKey]

Radiant just landed the largest microreactor government contract ever.

$750M from the U.S. Army for 15 reactors.

LFG ☢️🚀

Fund 4 @BoostVC just made its 100th investment 🚀

[Doug Bernauer @DougBernauer]

Sometimes when a star dies, it leaves some energy behind. Our nuclear fuel is a 5 billion year old gift from the milky way. This brings new meaning to the phrase "Thank your lucky stars!"

[Jai David @jaiaryandavid]

I raised $100k with my best friend.

Today we’re excited to share Parde: The First Event Bank.

Banks see an event organizer and think: no assets -> no loan.

But these organizers move six figures a night. The money just runs through a ticketing platform no bank can see into.

Parde is the operating system organizers run on, and the bank that funds them.

We funded $84k of our own capital. It returned as $193k in 3 months (2.3x Return).

One ex-event organizer and one Forbes 30u30 engineer inventing the financing for the $1.2T events industry.

We're very thankful to @AdamDraper and @BoostVC for backing two 19-year-old founders.

[Adam Draper ⏻ @AdamDraper]

Look Mom!

@BoostVC ranked in Time.

Classic #222 place.

I feel sorry for the 221 other firms ahead of us... we are coming for you.

[Adam Draper ⏻ @AdamDraper]

I don't think people understand how big of a deal this is yet.

The team @RadiantNuclear has built a product that is a nuclear reactor, where historically reactor companies build buildings.

Historic.

[Brayton Williams ⏻ @BraytonKey]

This is nuclear as a product, not a construction project.

That has never been done before.

[Brayton Williams ⏻ @BraytonKey]

Visit to @RadiantNuclear w/ @AdamDraper.

@DougBernauer is an 1-of-1 founder.

The team is COOKING 🧑‍🍳

[Broc TenHouten @broctenhouten]

Deep tech needs investors who are willing to lean into ambitious ideas and the teams building them.

@BoostVC gets that. We’re proud to have them backing Intrinsic Power and grateful for their support as we build. ⚡
