The Venture Collective (TVC) is an early-stage venture capital firm founded in 2019 and headquartered in New York City (with a presence in London and other markets). It is backed by seasoned entrepreneurs and business leaders and is mission-driven to bridge funding gaps for underrepresented and high-impact founders by investing capital, expertise, and network support into rapidly scaling startups with defensible business models and transformative potential. The firm typically writes pre-seed and seed checks with the capability to support follow-on capital through Series A as companies grow.

• Technology, healthcare, science, and mission-driven startups with promising products and scalable business models.
• Founders with traction beyond pure idea stage (e.g., prototype, early market signals) suited to institutional VC engagement. 
• Companies at pre-seed to seed stages targeting significant growth potential.

Founder Pitch & Outreach: Startups engage via introductions, network outreach, or direct contact — the first step involves sharing pitch materials and business strategy.

Evaluation & Diligence: TVC conducts diligence on technology, team, market opportunity, and potential impact in line with its early-stage thesis. 

Term Negotiation: If selected, TVC negotiates investment amount and equity directly with the startup to arrive at customized terms. 

Capital Deployment & Support: Once terms are agreed, capital is deployed and TVC supports founders with strategic operational guidance, introductions, and ecosystem engagement. 

Follow-On & Growth: The firm may participate in future rounds (e.g., Series A) to continue backing companies through scaling milestones.

✔ Venture capital funding (~$100K–$2M) with tailored terms.
✔ Strategic mentorship and operational support aligned with long-term scaling goals.
✔ Access to a broad co-investor network and ecosystem connections to accelerate growth.
✔ Potential follow-on capital through Series A as the company scales.
