Interested In A Partnership with Wildwood?

We build with the pioneers, the courageous ones, the rebels just-crazy-enough to believe we can create things together that matter.

Wildwood partners with founders who are looking for a meaningful studio partnership. In addition to financial support, the Wildwood team offers entrepreneurs expertise and support in areas such as consumer insights, technology, product development, marketing, and beyond.

Eligibility Criteria

We look forward to hearing about what you’re building. Please note: this is a highly competitive process, and businesses that do not meet the criteria will not move forward in the process.

1. You align with our investment thesis. We believe that as a society, we are more digitally connected and content rich than ever before, yet we are also more sedentary, addicted, lonely, and burnt out. Many people live life relatively alone, indoors, and unconnected to a broader purpose that can give meaning and motivation to their life. We’re looking for entrepreneurs dedicated to building technology companies that make lives better.
2. You’re at the pre-seed stage and haven’t yet found product-market fit. You’re either in the very early stages of your business, or are at a  later stage with a business that is looking to make major pivots.
3. You are an entrepreneur on a venture track. You’re looking to grow quickly and raise a priced round within the next year.
4. You’re looking for more than just money from your next partner. As a studio, we provide meaningful early partnership and hands-on skills on topics like consumer insights, technology, and marketing to understand early product-market fit.

If those things are you, we’d love for you to submit a pitch.
