Outlast Fund

Outlast Fund backs disciplined founders building enduring companies, long after trends fade, markets shift, and their vision becomes inevitable. They are proud generalists with zero tolerance for empty trend-chasing, demonstrating a commitment to long-term value creation over short-term gains driven by fleeting trends. They focus on supporting companies with the potential to withstand market fluctuations and achieve lasting impact. Their investment strategy centers around pre-seed and seed stage companies in the Baltics and Nordics. They are flexible in their approach, willing to lead or follow investment rounds, but committed to active involvement in supporting their portfolio companies. They are not passive investors, but actively engage with the teams they back to provide guidance and resources. The fund emphasizes a right-sized fund to maintain an early-stage focus, allowing them to experiment, provide follow-on funding, and remain involved without being spread too thin. They prioritize investing the necessary capital at the early stage to enable companies to build, test, and prove real traction. Furthermore, they reserve significant capital for follow-on investments, indicating a commitment to supporting successful companies as they scale. Operating with offices in Riga and Stockholm, Outlast Fund aims to provide its portfolio companies with access and localized support across the Baltics and Nordics. This dual presence suggests a strong understanding of the regional ecosystems and a commitment to fostering growth within these markets.
