Mission
We believe in VC without ego. We wear our hearts on our sleeves, avoiding the puffery and posturing that gives venture capital a bad name. We invest in authentic friendships that go beyond work. Successful companies rely on trust and there is no greater way to foster that than by becoming real friends. We invest with insane conviction, moving quickly and backing teams when others think it’s too early.VC is a customer service business. Whether it’s testing product, pushing pixels, leveraging our network, or forcing people to download your app, we’re here to help. You make our dream jobs possible and we’re forever thankful for that.
