Investor Details Founded: 2019
Fearless Fund is a venture capital firm based in Atlanta, Georgia, dedicated to investing in women of color-led businesses seeking pre-seed, seed, or Series A financing. The firm aims to bridge the gap in venture capital funding for women of color founders building scalable, growth-oriented companies. Since its inception in 2019, Fearless Fund has invested nearly $27 million into approximately 40 startups led by women of color, with a portfolio that includes companies in sectors such as technology, consumer goods, healthcare, and retail. The firm has also awarded an additional $3.7 million in grants to support these entrepreneurs. In June 2024, Fearless Fund received follow-on investments from Bank of America, Costco, and Mastercard, demonstrating continued support for its mission. However, in September 2024, the firm agreed to terminate its Strivers Grant program for Black women-owned businesses to settle a lawsuit alleging discrimination. Despite this, Fearless Fund remains committed to empowering under-resourced entrepreneurs and continues to focus on providing funding and mentorship to women of color founders across the United States.
