Design & Product Lead
Simple Ventures, Toronto
The role
We’re looking for our founding team members to partner with us to source, vet and launch 10 new ventures in our first fund.
- Sourcing: we explore hundreds of ideas and identify the top concepts to test & launch.
- Vetting: After identifying concepts that we believe have potential, we deep dive into the global players / industries to understand their operating model, unit economics, etc. Most of our ideas are killed in this stage.
- Launch: Once we have conviction in a given concept, we bring professional branding, product development, financing and back office support to launch each business.
By building multiple companies, we have efficiencies and preferred partners that drive winning outcomes.
To catalyze our ventures, we partner with our strategic LPs, harnessing their domain expertise and networks to unlock new ideas + distribution advantages for our start-ups. The companies that we explore are industry agnostic though all have signs of product market fit from other regions.
