Scale is an early-stage venture capital fund and studio investing monetary and social capital in early-stage tech founders across North America, the Midwest, and Missouri. Founded in 2021 by Willy & Jabbok Schlacks and Jai Malik to help founders who blaze through constraints create generational wealth. Scale accelerates insights into building a successful company and helps founders focus on the hard stuff that matters. Our white-glove support is rooted in the experience of building companies on first principles.
