DO YOU HAVE A COMPELLING STORY TO INFLUENCE THE BEST VCS?

We are a VC fundraising investment bank.

Mighty Nine is an investment bank as a service for founders targeting top-tier European VCs.

We teach the VC Game. Then we recalibrate your ambition around it.

We build your equity story, then we help you run a lobbying campaign in the 6 to 18 months before you ever send a deck.

Facts over legends

0,8%

Less than 350 European startups every year raise a Series A with a tier-one VC — out of roughly 40,000 that try.

The thesis

THE TOP 2% OF FOUNDERS DON’T WIN BY PITCHING HARDER. THEY WIN BY CALIBRATING EARLIER.

YOU CANNOT CALIBRATE A COMPANY FOR A GAME YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND. MOST INCUBATORS SKIP THIS STEP ENTIRELY — AND SEND FOUNDERS INTO A RACE THEY WERE NEVER BUILT TO WIN.

Mighty Nine is an elite preparation school for the VC Game — the training ground top founders go through before the raise, not during it.

First, we calibrate. Is your company structurally built for venture scale? Does the math of a €1B+ exit hold up? Most founders never ask. Incubators and accelerators skip it. We start here because everything downstream depends on it.

Then, we develop the insight. VCs don’t fund pitches — they fund secrets. A contrarian read on a market they thought they understood. We extract that insight from inside the founder, sharpen it against reality, and turn it into a thesis investors can’t ignore.

Then, we teach you how to run the campaign. For 12 to 18 months, we evangelize that thesis across the ecosystem — to VC-backed founders, operators, and co-investors whose opinion shapes partner conviction. By the time the roadshow starts, the conviction is already built. The pitch is a formality.
