Helping Startups Strike

We invest capital, time and resources in the most ambitious entrepreneurs "between the coasts" - teaming up at the pre-seed and seed stage to help make their dreams a reality

Hear from our founders

As first-time founders, raising venture funding was an intimidating experience for us but that changed the day we met Natty and Ryan. They've always made it feel like they're our partners and friends more than our investors. We are so grateful to be in the Matchstick family.
Melanie Fellay, CEO Spekit

Founder first because
we were founders first

We've started, scaled and failed at our own companies, so trust us, we get it

After successfully starting and exiting our own companies, we learned we got more satisfaction and happiness using our experience and network in service of helping other's achieve their dreams.

Using values to
create value

We believe the best way to create value is through real, trusting relationships

We build deep, trustworthy and enduring relationships with the entrepreneurs we back because we put people first. We're the first call for many of our entrepreneurs because they know what we stand for, how we act and we have a real relationship.
