Folius Ventures is an open-ended, evergreen Web3 / blockchain-related fund dedicated to investing in decentralized applications as well as the enabling infrastructures and tools through a portfolio of digital assets and equity positions in blockchain companies. Folius was founded by Jason Kam (aka “Mapleleafcap”) with extensive public equities experience and recently launched on September 1st, 2021.

We are looking to bring on a research partner: someone in a position to help identify, evaluate, underwrite, evangelize, and help #buidl Web3 projects. Ultimately, we are looking for a technical partner who can choose to be a founder, but prefers a “co-pilot” seat that is investment and support oriented: this is someone who wants to explore the full landscape of Web3 startups today, find the most exciting ones to stand behind, and help those projects succeed.

Responsibilities:

  • Invest: identify, evaluate, underwrite, and oversee public and private investment opportunities.
  • Buidl: explore, advise, and/or directly contribute to Web3 projects.
  • Evangelize: champion key theses and ideas to build our (and your!) narrative-defining reputation.

Qualifications:

  • Strong domain expertise (whichever technical area it may be) for world-class teams to consider you a peer.
  • Extensive knowledge of ongoing Web3 projects and deep networks, thereby the ability to connect with, technically vet, and diligence emerging teams and projects.
  • Long-termism; prepared for the inevitable cycles and ready to sacrifice short-term profits for longer-term gains.
  • Native fluency in >= 1 language(s) aside from English preferred.

What we can offer:

  • Mundane, non-research, and non-investment tasks will be kept at a minimum (to the extent we can) – the investment infrastructure is set up where your time will be 100% focused on investing, buidling, and evangelizing.
  • Autonomy and responsibility - you will be driving key decisions, help build the firm, and really define who we are.
  • You will share meaningful upside economics. Open to creative arrangements.
  • You can be based anywhere in the world.
