DayDream Ventures is a syndicate that is aiming to identify and fund the best founders that are GenZ or building products for GenZ. Previous angel investments include Beacons & Copy.ai. We look for pre-seed to seed-stage companies. While generalist, sectors we specialize in investing in the creator economy, fintech, AI/ML, and consumer technology space. To date, notable co-investors include Craft Ventures, Atelier Ventures, Sequoia, Pear VC, and RareBreed VC.

GenZ currently has a spending power of over $140B and by 2023, will become the largest generational cohort in the economy. Our team of all GenZ's is well-positioned to understand this developing space and its consumer base and better become a more effective strategic partner to startups with GenZ focused products or to GenZ founders.
