If our team of experienced entrepreneurs judges that these first 2 phases are really promising, a 12-month co-creation phase at THE QUEST Startup Studio will begin for the young talent in question and his or her startup project.
A pre-seed of €100K at a valuation of €1M will be deployed by a pool of investors, composed of THE QUEST Hippodrome and other external investors.
This investment proposal will be voted on by a majority of the club's investor members.

WHY JOIN
The Quest
👨🎤
ACCESS OFF-MARKET DEAL FLOW
Investing via THE QUEST Hippodrome means exclusive access to a deal flow of unconventional, nerdy, singular talent, tested in the real world, in the field, by experienced entrepreneurs, who have or will drop out of school to create global startups in the coming months with all their heart, candor and boundless energy.
💪
AN EXPERIENCED OPERATIONAL ARM BEHIND EVERY INVESTMENT
THE QUEST's premise is that an experienced team (like the staff of the biggest soccer clubs, for example) gives very young talent a much better chance of building success. At THE QUEST, projects are not launched "just" by a few young, inexperienced founders, but co-founded by young entrepreneurs with boundless energy, supported by a team of more experienced entrepreneurs, who will help them avoid many lethal mistakes, and distill the cherry on the cake that sometimes makes all the difference.
This is the strenght of a model that minimises risk.
A single investment ticket in THE QUEST Hippodrome gives exposure to the next 20 startups created within THE QUEST over the next 3 years.
This model maximizes the chances of profit and greatly reduces the risks associated with early stage investment.
