Founder + Lightning - Matt Jonns

Founder + Lightning is a pioneering Venture Studio and Fund, that invests in Founders to build and grow their businesses.

We invest in B2B companies that have the potential to use tech to radically increase their value. We use our decade-long skillset and resources to help them realise that potential, by co-building technology solutions.

Our headquarters are in London, but we have teams in India, Poland and all across the world. We are proud of our 130+ team, 6 investments and 30 portfolio companies that have a combined value of £150m+, multiple of which are now at Series A.

Too many tech companies in the UK fail, and frustratingly it’s often for the same reasons over and over. If we’re to live in the kind of society we all want to live in, we need more founders to succeed– that is what drives the Founder + Lightning model.
