C2 Ventures

C2 Ventures is a Greenwich-based early-stage venture capital firm specializing in investing in 'dirty, dull, and dangerous' verticals. The firm focuses on Pre-Series A companies developing enterprise software and robotics solutions for legacy industries, aiming to transform traditionally challenging sectors through technology. Established in 2014, C2 Ventures is currently investing from its third fund and has supported 46 companies, raising over $120 million and achieving 3 exits.

Their investment strategy emphasizes hands-on support, including capital raises, exits, commercial scaling, financial and operational assistance, and strategic advice. The firm operates with a disciplined focus on its core investment thesis, stage, and geography, intentionally excluding overfunded and overvalued markets. C2 Ventures also runs the 'Superpowers Podcast,' where they engage with inspirational founders to discuss their entrepreneurial journeys.

C2 Ventures' portfolio includes companies such as Paladin, Argyle, Beam, Boostr, and Civ Robotics. The firm is led by Founding Partner Chris Cunningham, who has a 20-year tech industry background and has been instrumental in the firm's growth and success. Under his leadership, C2 Ventures has established itself as a significant player in the venture capital landscape, particularly in sectors that are often overlooked by traditional investors.
