Our elite group of investors contributes time, expertise, capital, and connections to help founders gain access to the right people and resources to grow their business, their way.
365 Access
We meet with companies at any stage, any time. It’s never too early to get the conversation started.
Pre-Funding Assistance
We work with early-stage entrepreneurs to get them ready for funding eligibility—whether from us or other VCs.
Dedicated Expertise
With 180 well-connected investors from nearly every industry, we look at both expertise and personality to find the most appropriate champion(s) to engage with each business.
Weeks Not Months
Ready-to-go companies participate in a highly efficient “diligence sprint.” Companies can quickly get a yes/no funding decision with supportive feedback along the way.
Ongoing Support
We stay with our companies as they grow, assisting with recruiting, strategy, best practices, and introductions—whatever is needed.

Local, loyal, collaborative, and open-minded. We’re firm in our roots and believe getting to know each entrepreneur and making the right connections is the key to developing a plan for success.
