The Power Of Investing in Under-resourced Founders

The changing dynamics of the US population presents a vast and untapped market, offering an immense opportunity for value creation.

In 2023,

black founders raised 0.48% of all venture dollars allocated, and in the first half of 2024, female founders raised 2.2% of all venture dollars allocated (TechCrunch, 2024).

As of 2023,

venture capital funding was concentrated in three major markets (the Bay Area, Boston, and New York) comprising 78.4% of all venture capital, leaving other markets inadequately funded.

11.1%

of all venture capital was allocated to the Mid-Atlantic, and Midwest states accounted for an additional 4.1% of assets under management (AUM).

Accelerating Success Through Strategic Collaborations
