Mindstone x Founders Capital — The Future of AI Investing

Dear ,

I am thrilled to share details of a new strategic partnership between Mindstone and Founders Capital, created to give our community direct, priority access to Europe’s leading investment community and an opportunity for Mindstone members to invest in early and growth-stage AI companies shaping the future.

This partnership marks another step in Mindstone’s mission (and impact), moving beyond unlocking personal and professional growth (through AI) to empowering each of you to participate directly in the financial upside of AI investment.

About Founders Capital

Founders Capital is a private investment group built by and for entrepreneurs, operators, and professionals who want access to deals that have historically been limited to institutional investors or Tier 1 VC firms.

• Unique Access Points
  Members have invested in highly sought-after companies such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Databricks, Perplexity, as well as a pipeline of breakout early-stage ventures.

• Curated, High-Quality Deal Flow
  Early-stage access to startups (including 10+ Y Combinator companies per quarter), late-stage secondaries, and co-investments alongside globally recognised VCs such as Lightspeed and Accel.

• Founder-Led Philosophy
  Founders Capital operates on the principle that successful founders and operators should back the next generation—offering capital, insight, and long-term alignment without leading rounds or taking board seats.

What This Means for Mindstone Community Members

✅ Exclusive Access
You’re invited to apply for membership and, upon passing KYC, participate in early and late-stage private investment opportunities that are rarely available to individual investors.

✅ Founders Capital Membership (Normally £1,500) — Free of Charge
Mindstone members will be fast-tracked into the Founders Capital community under a unique access structure. There’s no cost to join and no obligation to invest.

✅ Observe Before You Participate
Founders Capital encourages new members to take their time: review live deal flow, explore the diligence materials, understand the structure—and only participate when you feel confident.

✅ Tailored to Mindstone’s Community
We’ll work with Founders Capital to highlight opportunities that reflect the values and practical needs of Mindstone members—especially professionals who want exposure to meaningful (AI) innovation, without needing to be technical experts.

✅ Funding for Mindstone Members
We’ll work with Founders Capital to select investment opportunities from the community that we believe represent the future in AI innovation. We have a direct communication channel with the team at Founders Capital for Mindstone members to reach out with pitchdecks and investment materials - Sam Hargrove ([email protected]) will be FC’s representative and point of contact.
