Thesis
What we invest in
We look for founders who are close to a real problem and ready to ship. Technology-heavy ideas suit us best, because that is where we add the most beyond money.
The basics
- Stage
- Pre-seed, seed and selective Series A
- Geography
- Türkiye first, then the wider region
- Sectors
- Commerce, SaaS, AI, logistics, events
- Ticket
- USD 50K to 250K first cheque, with follow-on
- Role
- Lead or co-invest, always hands-on
What we look for
- A founder who has lived the problem.
- A product that can ship a first version in months, not years.
- A market in Türkiye big enough to prove the model before going abroad.
- Honesty about what is not working yet.
What founders get
- Capital with clear terms.
- PATH's engineering and product team for the first release.
- Twenty years of commerce and AI operating experience.
- Introductions to our portfolio, partners and co-investors.
