About firstminute capital

firstminute is a seed fund backed by over 130 unicorn founders and a world-class community.

We're not just a fund. We're a community supporting the next generation of maverick entrepreneurs.


Founded in 2017 by Spencer Crawley and Brent Hoberman, firstminute capital is a $400m AUM seed fund supported by over 100 unicorn founders (including 10 decacorns).

Brent is a serial founder including two unicorns in lastminute.com and Made.com, and Spencer a serial fundraiser, whose career spans Goldman Sachs, out of which he spun out DMC, a Special Opps PE Fund, to Appdirect.

Their collaboration began with Brent's search for an energetic partner to funnel his angel deal flow into something more official and leverage the depth and breadth of the Founders Forum ecosystem into something beneficial to founders, and Spencer's quest for a meaningful mission, resulting in the birth of firstminute capital.
