Andy Budd
The Design VC. Helping early stage founders master fundraising, product strategy, and growth.
About me
I’m a Venture Partner at Seedcamp, one of Europe’s top early-stage VC funds, where I help founders sharpen their pitch decks, refine their fundraising strategy, and optimise for product-led growth. As an advisor and executive coach, I’ve supported dozens of founders, VPs of Product, and design leaders to lead with clarity, grow their teams, and achieve product–market fit. Before moving into venture capital, I founded Clearleft — the UK’s first (and arguably best) UX design studio — working with brands like Spotify, Mozilla, eBay, Burberry, Virgin Atlantic, and Penguin Books. I also wrote The Growth Equation, a practical playbook that helps early-stage founders find their first users, build traction, and reach $1M in revenue and beyond. If you’re building a startup and want experienced guidance from someone who understands design, product, and venture capital, let’s talk. How I can help • Founder coaching — develop clarity, confidence, and resilience as you grow • Fundraising strategy — craft a compelling investor narrative and raise with confidence • Pitch deck feedback — refine your story and design with a VC’s perspective • Design & product feedback — strengthen your value proposition and user experience • Product-led growth & GTM strategy — turn traction into sustainable growth Whether you’re preparing to raise, refining your deck, or trying to scale through design-led growth, I can help you move faster and with more confidence. Let’s connect.
