How It Works – The Arditi Process
At Arditi, we partner with daring founders who have the courage to change the game. Our process is designed to be transparent, efficient, and founder-friendly, giving ambitious teams a clear path to potential funding, support, and growth. We’re here for those who dare to dream BIG - and we're here to give them a fair fighting chance to make those dreams come true!
Here's how it works:
Deal Introduction - Gets sourced by either the Core Team or a trusted VC (Founders cannot apply directly)
Preparation - The startup and VC complete the Arditi Form. Our team prepares the deal for a VC-friendly screening, using our model.
Presentation & Process - The VC presents the deal to the Collective. After a 72-hour interest window, we follow a streamlined process:
Week 1: Founder–VC calls
Week 2: Cross-VC note exchange
Weeks 3-4: Commitment period
Value-Add Contributions – Members share soft commitments and non-material value-add.
Finalization – Capital commitments and value-add contributions are confirmed by founders.
This kind of structure ensures the merit-driven collaboration between not only start-ups and VCs, but also a mutual alignment between co-investors in order to ensure the mutual success of all participants. O la vittoria, o tutti accoppati! (“We either win, or we all die”)
