At Lightbird we invest on the back of a #thesis.
That thesis stems out of this observation of opposites:
Today, it has never been *easier to build* (B2B) software products. Yet, it has also never been *harder to grow* a software company.
At Lightbird, we believe that the best companies approach this growth challenge by focusing on how to deliver their products to customers in the most effective way. They turn innovation into a go-to-market advantage.
We call this: *Distribution Advantage*.
With the launch of our new website we're delighted to make our thesis public by releasing our #manifesto.
Visit lightbird.vc/ learn more about our thesis, how we see Distribution Advantage manifest and what type of founders we partner with.
Let us know your thoughts!
Our @thuyl_nh will be participating in Europe & MENA-wide Female Founder Office Hours, hosted by @playfaircapital,@GlobalVC_MENA,@me_vca, @TechNation, @googlestartups on 10th Nov 2022 alongside 150 VC.

When was the last time you fell into a rabbit hole?🐰🕳️
We at @lightbird_vc recently deep-dived into the modern data stack and learned about the cloud data warehouse becoming the system of record, the need for data ops and the importance of community.
