# Nashsphere

> Nashsphere is a four-person investment firm and studio in Växjö, Sweden — investing across angel, early-stage, and public markets, and building our own products.

**We invest our own capital, and build the companies we'd rather own outright.** Nashsphere is a Sweden-based four-person firm backed by a broad investor base. We back founders, take positions in public markets, and build our own products.

## Companies we and our founders have backed

OpenAI, NVIDIA, Databricks, Stripe, SpaceX, ElevenLabs.

## How we invest: Four ways we put capital to work.

Different shots on goal — angel bets, private rounds, public positions, and the products we build — chosen so the wins don't all rise and fall together.

1. **Angel investing.** First cheques into founders we'd happily work for. Small, early, and hands-on when it helps — out of the way when it doesn't.
2. **Early-stage private rounds.** Seed to Series A, usually alongside people we've known for years. A real cheque, and a line on the cap table we mean to keep.
3. **Public companies & IPOs.** We hold listed positions and step into IPOs when the price and the business finally agree. Patience is most of the strategy.
4. **In-house product development.** Some bets are easier to simply own. When that's true, the four of us build the company ourselves rather than write a cheque.

## Where we look: Three industries, for now.

We stay close to what we understand. The list grows slowly, and only when one of us has actually lived the problem.

- **Tech, AI, robotics & security.** Frontier technology. Where software starts touching the physical world — automation, intelligent systems, and the security that has to travel with them.
- **Fintech.** Financial infrastructure. The plumbing of money: payments, lending, and the unglamorous rails that quietly compound over a decade.
- **Real estate.** Property & yield. Bricks and yield — a ballast of harder assets to steady the book against the volatility everywhere else.

## The partners: Four founders. One book.

We've worked together long enough to disagree well, which turns out to be most of the job when you're investing your own money.

- **André** — CIO / Chief Investment Officer. Works hands-on across investments, combining strategic thinking, company building, and disciplined capital allocation.
- **Johan** — Cross-Border Ventures. Builder and operator across software, AI, and biotech ventures in the US and overseas. Brings international perspective and operating instincts.
- **Mikael** — Deal-flow king. Keeps us informed, aligned, and intact, with a constant eye on new opportunities.
- **Marcus** — Early-stage scout and venture builder. Comes up with great product ideas and finds founders no one has heard about yet.
