Since starting Makerverse, my life has gotten into fifth gear. Same for the joy I have for working with colleagues and our investor like Ninepointfive.

Ninepointfive had a network of other VC’s and crucial knowledge, such as investment structures and equity allocation models. Thanks to them, MakerVerse was able to secure an eight-digit seed funding.
We have seen Ninepointfive at work and appreciate how they add value by sharpening the value proposition of the venture.
The Tidal fund they are setting up now is a very needed answer to overcome the challenge of innovation getting to market in this sector. I appreciate how they bring the independent lens on value creation to complex settings
