Dan Brockell , Marina Wu and Jono Herman - founders of Earlywork, has closed $700K in pre-seed funding led by James Tynan at Square Peg, supported by Archangel Ventures, Phase One Ventures & several angels to go full-time!
Earlywork helps Gen Zs get into tech jobs…. And charge a fraction of the price of a normal recruiter . They engage people living in shared houses to work on specific projects - through EarlyHome!
They are a community-first project, and in everything we hope to create over the years to come, it all comes back to the question of how we can best help each of you in your journey to work on, and create something you care about deeply.
They have grown their slack community to over 2000 and have a subscriber base of over 4000!!!
The Pain EarlyWork is trying to solve
Where can the Gen Zs work and feel engaged and inspired?
Certainly not feeling insignificant in corporate bureaucracy - dreading going to work - feeling burnt out !!!
Crises in climate, inequality and social inclusion are highlighting major flaws in how our society operates today.
How can a GenX make a meaningful career and make a positive dent on the planet using technologies like AI, Web3, and AR/VR - which are literally creating new worlds of opportunity.
