Notable Investments
Rockies Venture Fund operates as a platform of multiple thematic funds built on top of the long-running Rockies Venture Club angel network (active since 1985), giving it unusually deep, curated angel deal flow and institutionalized angel diligence processes that many first-time or standalone VC managers do not have. One of its funds, Rockies Seed Fund, is dedicated exclusively to pre-seed and seed companies led by Black and Latino founders with a GP team intentionally constructed to "mirror the entrepreneurs we serve," emphasizing partners from underinvested communities with deep roots in the startup ecosystem.
