Capital can be found anywhere, but what sets LocalHost apart is their involvement beyond the cheque. Simply put, you won’t find mentorship and support like this anywhere else.

Working with Kei and the team has been the experience of a lifetime. They are committed to backing social impact projects! Thanks to localhost, our nonprofit has expanded beyond a simple story into a global climate movement.

Sometimes, having even one person believe in you can change everything. Localhost was that first believer. They are excited to hear about crazy ideas from young builders when the average investor would shut them down.

LocalHost plugged me into a network of insanely talented people and gave me the resources to actually build something real. It’s not just superficial "networking". It allows you to build personal connections that makes all the difference.

I've been working with Kei for a year now and the team has been helpful in sponsoring our events empowering builders. They have also gone out of their way to back people in the Residency and I’d recommend people — especially community-builders to work with them.

LocalHost was one of my first believers, giving me both the funding and the invaluable guidance that helped shape what is today!
