Tiger Black
Startup creation is exploding. AI made it cheap to begin. It did not make it easy to win.
A few will go through YC, but then what? And for the millions who want to win, they need a tribe to compete with, collaborate with, bounce ideas off: the serendipity of success.
Homophily is the cult-like behaviour that brings the best together. Whether your passion is sport, chess, special forces, or innovation, if you want to win, it helps to be around the best.
Success is addictive. Effort is infectious. For those all-in, the most valuable thing is to find your people.
What we build
We build that place. 9Zero for climate. VCity for AI. Two of the most consequential industries of our generation.
Club, work, and events under one roof. A network that gets more valuable as the right people join, enabled by capital.
The truth is talent doesn’t chase money. Money chases talent. We already house multiple VCs, and invest ourselves, compounding the success of the passionate. It is an ecosystem of belief, hard work, and purpose.
How it works
So Tiger Black is two businesses that must stay married: a customer business that sits next to founders, investors, and innovators, and a real-estate business that owns or partners on the buildings we fill. Homophily gathers them. Scenius is what follows.
For many, this is the future of work.
The asset
Our model drives exceptional returns on commercial space because membership is just the start. It is selected people who stay, refer, and raise the standard. Who you ideate around will matter more than how you build, it will determine what you build.
That is the product. That is the asset.
