Open Founder Opportunity

Most founders know what a VC is. Fewer know what a Venture Studio is. A Venture Studio does not primarily invest capital. Instead, it invests execution.

At Advisable Venture Studio, we build companies by assembling the people and capabilities that transform an idea into a business: Product Management, UX/UI Design, Software Engineering, Marketing, Strategy, Fundraising support, and everything needed to validate, build and scale a product.

Unlike accelerators or incubators, Venture Studios usually create their own companies internally, we identify problems worth solving, validate opportunities, and build from the ground up. When a missing capability is needed, we bring in a co-founder who is deeply connected to that problem.

For that reason, we rarely accept founders who already have their own idea and being a small studio also rarely accept to co-build with founders in exchange of pure equity.

However, right now we're opening one opportunity for an external founder. We're willing to work with you for equity only, with no upfront or deferred fees.

We contribute our team, expertise and execution. You contribute the vision, domain knowledge and commitment.

Who We Are Looking For

We're not looking for someone who believes they've spotted a gap in the market.

We're looking for someone who has lived the problem firsthand, someone who understands the pain because they've experienced it personally or professionally, and is committed to solving it.

We believe the best founders don't start with an idea. They start with a problem they know intimately.

What We Need to See

• A working prototype.
• Product validation with at least €2k in Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR).

What Happens If There Are More Suitable Applications?

We are a small studio and when we accept external founders, we are typically able to sustain only one deal for full equity exchange. In all the other cases we use an hybrid model where we combinate a smally amount of equity with an upfront payment or a monthly payment.

How We Evaluate

Every application is assessed using the same framework:

• Problem Quality
• Market Size
• Timing & Trends
• Founder–Market Fit
• Competitive Advantage
• Validation Signals
• Business Model Fit
• Studio Fit

1. Healthcare

If you're building because you've experienced the problem yourself, and you're looking for a team that executes alongside you rather than simply writing a cheque, we'd love to hear your story.
