Profile
Contrary is a decentralized, university-focused fund, empowering the brightest university entrepreneurs everywhere. As history clearly shows, the most successful and disruptive technology companies
over the past 20 years have been created by university entrepreneurs. Yet, to this day, no organization truly capitalizes on the immense talent and opportunity
that abounds on university campuses across the globe. We’re fixing that. We passionately believe that the next generation’s most successful companies
will continue to emerge from universities - only this time, more than ever before.
