Maven 11 proudly supports brave outliers challenging the status quo. With a long track record of successful funds, the Maven 11 team has continuously pushed forwards in an ever-changing industry. Since our founding, we have expanded our investment team with the best talent, and today we are excited to announce several promotions within the firm.

With the launch of our third fund, Mathijs becomes a General Partner. Since 2017, Mathijs has played a crucial role in our growth, identifying top-tier investments like Celestia, and supporting our portfolio companies. His 8+ years of experience will continue to support brave outliers.

Mads is promoted to Research Partner, driving our research and providing valuable guidance to portfolio companies. His innovative research advances the industry, and we look forward to his continued growth.

Pim steps up as Principal on our venture team. Since joining in 2021, Pim has excelled in driving investments and engaging founders, significantly contributing to our success. We are excited to see his continued impact on Maven 11's strategic direction.

Bram becomes Head of Product, leading our offering to our founders. Hired from a DAO we invested in, Bram's unique experiences as a crypto operator provide invaluable insights to early-stage founders, helping them avoid common pitfalls.

‘At Maven 11, we take immense pride in witnessing the growth of our team members alongside our organization since our inception in 2016.’ says Balder Bomans, Managing Partner at Maven 11. ‘More importantly, we recognize that our organization is defined by its people. Together, we've cultivated a culture that enables us to effectively address the unique needs of our ventures. Our collective expertise and dedication are the driving forces behind our ability to support and nurture the brave outliers who are reshaping the blockchain landscape.’

We also welcome a new advisor, Joe Coll, co-founder of Witness, who joins as a venture scout, expanding our US presence with his deep blockchain knowledge and venture experience. In addition, Bart Kool will also be joining us as an advisor. Bart has an extensive track record in the hedge fund industry and brings expertise in both venture and liquid capital management.

We are thrilled to see our team thrive in their new roles and look forward to their continued contributions to Maven 11’s success.
