AMA: Michael Tefula from Ada Ventures
Michael is a Principal and Head of Product at Ada Ventures.
Ada is a pre-seed venture capital firm investing through an inclusive lens. They invest in the best, not just the best-connected. They find and fund the Ada Lovelaces of today, backing European founders building businesses for a better human future.
Ada invests £250k to £1m in UK technology companies across climate equity, economic empowerment and healthy ageing.
Michael is Ada's investor and product lead, building internal and external technology products and proofs-of-concept across the founder and VC value chain, most recently launching AdaGPT. Michael's recent investments include YC-backed Bilanc and JigsawStack.
Michael has been a pre-seed investor for over six years. He is a self-taught developer, former operator and angel investor. Founders value his ability to engage with the technical aspects of their products and the transformative journey of growing from Pre-seed to Series A.
Michael's investment area at Ada Ventures is economic empowerment.
This is focused on companies that inclusively transform:
- Money (systems that promote economic prosperity and resilience for all)
- Work (automation of the mundane to make work & life more delightful)
- Skills (platforms that help us level up for the new economy)
If you're a founder building in these areas, please join us at Oasis on the 16th of April for this insightful AMA with Michael.
