Investing in founders with bold visions to positively change the world.
We’re a Midwest-based, seed stage venture capital firm focused on companies building network effects.
We invest in a handful of companies each year, allowing us to work closely with founders and their teams in a hands-on, dedicated way. We’ve been investing in and working with startups for nearly 20 years, so we aren’t afraid to write the first check into a company or lead a round. We believe in the power of community and lean on the collective intelligence of our founder and investor network to help each other learn and grow.
"Network Ventures has been a great institutional investor. They create a productive, partnering relationship that allows us to ask for help or ask questions when we encounter an unfamiliar scenario. The network also lives up to its name. The portfolio company founders are always available to help bounce ideas, support fundraising or connect to useful resources."
