We Invest in Entrepreneurs That Do Good Things for the Earth & Humanity
Coaching & early stage investing
TinkerBarn was created by serial entrepreneur, Frank Addante, who founded 5 businesses resulting in $5 billion of market value, more than $1 billion in sales, 2 IPOs, 4 acquisitions and $300 million capital raised.
We are establishing a syndicate for our early stage investments in impact startups accelerated by TinkerBarno. Social and environmental impact is top of mind, right now, because social and environmental impact = ROI impact for businesses and investors. Companies and governments have made big promises, but big gaps exist. Startups will drive innovation to fill those gaps. But there’s a large gap between idea and scale. The market (and world) needs to accelerate new impact startup ideas. That’s why we created TinkerBarn - to accelerate startups with impact. Our accelerator exists to make investments more successful. We focus on the 6 P’s of value creation; Purpose, People Product, Positioning, Protection and Plan.
Our model is to go beyond just being a strategic advisor to get hands on with the businesses to help founders execute faster and better. We're able to invest with greater confidence than other funds due to our involvement in, and deep-rooted knowledge of, the companies in our accelerator. We believe that Execution amplified by Storytelling = Value Creation.
We source deals that come to us through our TinkerBarn accelerator, Frank's university network and more than 150,000 followers on social media.
