PEOPLE + PLANET
We’re looking for founders with a vision for a better world. We invest in leaders (because we’ve shared their journey).
FOUNDERS FUNDING FOUNDERS
We’ve succeeded against the odds, let us help you do the same.
No one understands better than a fellow founder what it’s like to give birth to a new idea. We’ve shared the dream of changing lives, creating new paradigms, finding a better way (forging new paths to markets.) We’ve experienced the exhilaration and the exhaustion - the long hours – the endless meetings – the ceaseless reassessments, the humbling breakdowns and the soaring breakthroughs. We’ve walked in your shoes, felt your pain, came up against the same frustrations. We’ve lived your conviction and determination, and your excitement and wonder. We’ve leaped over the seemingly insurmountable, opened our minds, learned from our mistakes, and achieved the unthinkable.
We share the most potent weapon in the drive for excellence— the Founder’s will. We know that new ideas create a better future, because we’ve lived it. That‘s why we invest in people first.
What is First Point?
Our name derives from a place where nature meets human will and endeavor to create an experience of the sublime. First Point is the legendary surf break on the Malibu coast, where the sea meets the sky and the waves hold an ideal form. Those who approach it with patience, mindfulness and purpose are rewarded with the unparalleled exhilaration (and life-changing experience) of the perfect ride. It is a metaphor for the launching point of a transformative journey— one that can take you exactly where you want to go.
