“The quality of support TRIPP receives from Hartmann Capital goes above and beyond the role of just “investor.” The team immediately understood our mission to use tech for good and that in order to have real impact in the world we would require having the right voices in the room as we scale to the next level as a company.”

Inga Petryaevskaya

“Having Hartmann Capital invest in our pre-seed round—well ahead of many understanding the need for a spatial design platform for spatial apps—was a clear signal of the firm's commitment to accelerating the development of the entire XR industry. Being an XR founder, it was incredibly refreshing to work with an investment team that is highly educated about spatial computing and our ecosystem.”

Toby Saunders

“Incredibly founder friendly VC! Myself and my brother always felt like we had an ally in those very early stages of the company, regardless of how tough things got. The reality checks, strategy suggestions, founder guidance, and personal growth support was meaningful and efficient. They have become a team of people I respect and admire, and very much enjoy sharing my time with. Top tier communication, top tier support, top tier people.”
