For Investors
Founder trust is an investment edge.
Infectious gives aligned investors access to founders with lived insight, community trust and deep problem proximity, then supports those founders in ways that improve their chances of success.
Marc brings founder access, support, network and narrative. You bring capital, structuring, diligence and investment discipline.
Why this founder category matters now.
AI has collapsed the cost of execution. The advantage is shifting towards founders with proximity to the problem, trust with the community they serve, and the resilience to keep going through uncertainty.
Many of these founders do not arrive through familiar networks or polished decks. Conventional pattern-matching misses them. That is the opportunity.
Infectious is built to see them earlier and help them become more investable without losing the soul of the work.
Possible structures.
Infectious is starting light, then earning the right to whatever structure comes next.
Backed scout arrangement.
Deal-by-deal angel pledge circle.
Micro-SPVs.
Patron-backed annual cheque-writing allocation.
Co-investment partnerships with established funds.
Founder-support retainers with upside where appropriate.
The first goal is not to build a fund. The first goal is to prove the signal.
