Karaoke Club

Karaoke Club is a pre-seed investor and founder community run by Melinda Elmborg and Nino Subotic, targeting European founders at their very first institutional round — typically when transitioning from a side project to full-time. The firm invests €50–100k per company, typically via a SAFE, and aims to participate in total rounds of €200–700k, helping founders bring in additional investors. Alongside capital, portfolio founders gain access to an active WhatsApp community, biweekly accountability/reflection sessions, and quarterly in-person 'Karaoke Camps' — intimate gatherings for peer learning and networking. Karaoke Club is generalist with no stated sector focus. The two founders bring backgrounds as accelerator co-leads at Fast Track Malmö and as a VC at Daphni (Melinda), and as a startup founder and operator (Nino). Applications are accepted via a Typeform linked from the homepage.
