About Danger
“In English venture capital sounds wonderful like an adventure, in Israel we’re very direct; we call it ‘danger capital.’” – Jon Medved
Danger Capital started life as a venture capital management company. The name stuck, because early-stage companies aren’t adventures. They’re dangerous. Messy. Full of half-baked signals, brutal trade-offs, and the constant risk of running out of cash.
Danger isn’t about theatre. It’s about survival, strategy, and traction.
- Survival: knowing your cash cliff, your burn, your reality.
- Strategy: making informed decisions when the signal is scarce.
- Traction: building what customers actually prove out, not what pitch decks promise.
The Danger Network
We’re not an agency. We’re not cheerleaders. And we’re definitely not vibe merchants.
We’re a loosely connected network of behind-the-scenes investors, seasoned operators, and advisors who usually stay out of the spotlight.
You won’t find us on stage. But when the cap table’s a mess, the product isn’t shipping, or the founder just got ghosted by their lead investor — we get the call.
- Bitter? Sometimes.
- Honest? Always.
- Helpful? Only if you’re ready to hear it.
Danger today isn’t a fund. It’s a way of working. A network for founders who don’t need more slogans — they need clarity, conviction, and someone in the trenches with them.
Through companies — and the people who build them.
