Refer Game-Changing Startups & Members, and Share the Upside!

Refer a Deal: Earn 5% of carry

Get it on the action by referring exceptional startups. Help us empower the next generation of CEE innovators.

Get 5% of our carry on a referred deal if:

  • You're the first person to refer the company
  • The company isn't already in our funnel
  • We aren't already in contact with the company
  • We invest in the company

Example:

  1. BADideas.fund invests €150K in a startup you referred
  2. 5 years later, the startup is sold for 10x higher valuation
  3. BADideas.fund share is worth €1.5M - Profit = €1.35M (€1.5M - €150K)
  4. 20% of profit = €270K - this is the 100% carry pool
  5. Your reward: 5% * €270K = €13,500

Refer a Member: Earn 2% of carry on your next investment

Expand our investor network by introducing high-caliber individuals who share our vision to support groundbreaking startups.

Get 2% of our carry on the next deal you invest in as soon as the referred member makes an investment.

Example:

  1. You refer a new member to BADideas.fund
  2. The member invests in a deal
  3. To use the example on the right, BADideas.fund carry pool is €270K
  4. Your reward: 2% * €270K = €5,400 per referred member

‣
When do I receive my carry reward for successful referrals?

You will receive your carry reward when the investment in the referred deal generates a return, for example through an exit or another liquidity event.

‣
Are there any limits on how many deals or members I can refer?

No, there are no limits. You can refer as many deals and members as you'd like.
