About Us

We are the and.

We are an early-stage venture capital firm. We write the first institutional checks into AI-first founders — vertical-agnostic, from pre-seed to Series A/B.

Founded in 2021, WE& Capital backs founders building with AI at the core — across any vertical, anywhere AI is reshaping how value is created. Venture has always been about access; we make that access global.

Our diverse lens means we see opportunities others overlook — and our cross-border network turns that vision into capital, customers, and scale.

The Name

Not a name. A promise.

WE& Capital  — pronounced "WE and" — was founded on the belief that venture capital should be a partnership, not a transaction.

The trailing ampersand in our name represents the vital "and" we bring to every investment: our capital and your vision, our network and your grit. We don't just provide funding — we provide the collaborative bridge between an idea and its execution, working as a collective force to scale what's next.

From Oslo to New York

Built. Bridged. Scaled.
