Founders by heart, investors by craft
At DFF, we believe in a no-nonsense approach to company building. That same philosophy drives our investment strategy. We go beyond spreadsheets and polished pitch decks, focusing on entrepreneurial grit, solid execution, and the people behind the ideas. Our founders are as relentless and resourceful as we are—a group of bold personalities who get things done. With experience building companies like WeTransfer, Just Eat, Hiber, Treatwell, and fonQ, we’ve now created the fund we wish we had back then. Keen to join us?
