Odin is on a mission to drive human progress by fundamentally reimagining how we invest.
We envision a world where people can vote with their money on what the future looks like, and participate in creating it.
To achieve this, we’re building a community-centric platform to launch and invest in venture capital funds & angel syndicates.
We offer investment infrastructure for fund managers, as well as communication features allowing investors to connect & collaborate with each other, and discover & invest in funds and individual deals. You can imagine it a bit like Stripe meets Twitter, for investing.
Our mission is ambitious and underpinned by our values. We’re already trusted by over 5,000 VCs, angels and founders, and we are just getting started.
