RDF Ventures is an independent, early-stage venture capital firm investing across industries, primarily in New England and selectively throughout the United States. The fund typically makes an initial investment of $100,000, with up to $250,000 available through follow-on funding, and generally invests at post-money valuations between $2 million and $6 million. RDF takes a relationship-driven approach to investing and supports founders through FoundersOnly, a flexible founder residency designed to build long-term relationships before an investment is made. The firm also helps administer Vermont’s SSBCI co-investment program.
