About Teddy Seem

Teddy Seem brings a background spanning quantitative finance at Bridgewater Associates and applied machine learning at fashion-tech startup Resonance Companies, where he built models to convert 2D clothing images into mathematical representations using CNNs and RNNs. He focuses on finding founders who can explain not just what they're building but why their problem exists and why prior solutions failed, while seeking companies that apply technology from one industry to large, outdated sectors.

Led by Datto founder and billionaire Austin McChord, Outsiders Fund explicitly avoids hot sectors and instead backs founders modernizing unglamorous but enormous markets like cattle supply chains, industrial painting, and satellite buses—sectors rarely covered in mainstream venture narratives. The fund has demonstrated its ability to spot "unsexy" infrastructure plays before they scale, such as investing in Apex's satellite manufacturing at Series A and riding it to a $200M Series D at unicorn valuation.
