B-Side Ventures

B-Side Ventures is a venture capital firm dedicated to investing in high-potential entrepreneurs who identify as firsts, few, or onlys. The firm focuses on mission-driven, business-savvy founders in the technology and healthcare sectors, providing them with the connections, capital, and community necessary for success. B-Side Ventures is committed to fostering an inclusive investment environment by building a network of angel investors from underrepresented communities.

The firm's investment strategy targets early-stage ventures, including pre-revenue and pre-product startups, as well as those that have raised less than $50,000 in financing. B-Side Ventures currently accepts pitches from founders based in the United States, US Territories, and the Caribbean. The firm writes checks ranging from $10,000 to $50,000, following member voting and investment committee review.

B-Side Ventures aims to disrupt traditional venture capital by investing in the next generation of underrepresented founders and creating new pathways to wealth for traditionally excluded investors. The firm fosters an educational and supportive community for founders and investors, offering workshops, an annual pre-accelerator program, and university partnerships to collaborate with high-potential student founders in launching purpose-driven and profitable startups.
