the beanstalk
bean is the seed. this is the climb.
what THE BEANSTALK is
the beanstalk is nevermind's venture arm. we build consumer brands and hold equity in them. we don't write cheques. we put in what we're best at - brand, film, design, content strategy, and the operating structure underneath - deployed the same way we'd deploy it into something of our own.
what we're looking for
founders building something people buy. early enough that the brand isn't fixed yet. honest about what's broken and one specific thing: your bottleneck has to be the thing we're go at. if you already know how to make people want it and you just need capital, we're the wrong partner and we'd rather tell you now.
where we are
the beanstalk is new. nothing in the portfolio yet.
we've built 31 brands through OS and put our own years and money into things that didn't work, so we know the inside of this from both directions.
what we don't have is a track record as investors and we'd rather tell you that than let you find out.
if you're building something consumer and you think our work is your bottleneck, we want to hear about it early.
