Animal is a syndication company, run by @enricomellis.

I build syndicates around founders, 

not a fund around managers.

"Every company, a different kind of animal."

The best founders don't need more capital - they need the right people involved. I start from who founders want and build the syndicate around it.

No fund. No management fees.
I co-invest my own capital every time.
