Backing extraordinary founders over 50

Brilliant Minds is not following the herd. We’re tapping into the untapped potential of older founders, turning their wisdom, expertise, and networks into the next wave of groundbreaking startups.

As seen on

Brilliant Minds is about what’s next. The world is not going to run by a bunch of young developers anymore—AI changed the game, and experience is the new edge. Betting on young dev founders is so 2010.

A highly overlooked market

Multi-generational teams

Older entrepreneurs lead ventures, with younger founders/advisors bringing them fresh perspectives.

People 50 to 65 are the fastest-growing group of entrepreneurs. The old way of thinking is broken—people want to live longer, evolve longer, and keep innovating.

The fastest growing market

Brilliant Minds funds early-stage startups led by founders over 50 who leverage cutting-edge tech to revolutionize their industries.
