Venture capital firm leading pre-seed and seed rounds | Act One Ventures

We are a community focused, early stage venture capital firm leading pre-seed and seed rounds in ecommerce infrastructure, vertical SaaS, and fintech

culture

We are founders first, having built companies from the ground up to IPO and beyond. We understand the difficult journey ahead for entrepreneurs because we've been there before. Our community of advisors is a diverse and dynamic group of experienced entrepreneurs and executives who are eager to mentor our founders with practical, meaningful advice and introductions that lead to revenue.

inclusion

We spearheaded the Diversity Rider to change the makeup of cap tables across venture investing. We back founders from all backgrounds, knowing diverse teams outperform non-diverse teams, and our portfolio consists of founders who are 70% people of color, LGBTQ+, or women. Many of our portfolio companies have gone on to raise large Series B and C rounds while attracting the biggest names in venture.
