Logistics

No fixed commitment of hours, duration, dates, or location.

Investment Focus

Versatile Venture Capital invests in early-stage, capital-efficient companies. Our typical check size is $200,000 to $1,000,000. We lead rounds and will also co-invest. We can make follow-on investments into our companies where helpful. We periodically invest in Series A and later rounds with a reputable lead investor.

We have built the industry’s largest database tracking free accelerators (no equity, no cash); startup support from the Fortune Global 500; free consulting; free money for student founders; and government startup support. Versatile VC provides extensive free resources for founders in transition considering: launching a new company; angel investing/becoming a VC; buying a company; joining boards; consulting; or just getting a job. We manage Founders’ Next Move, an invite-only, no-cost community for founders researching their next move. Lastly, we provide our companies with a suite of free portfolio acceleration services.

Our team has a history of investing in diverse and underrepresented founders. Versatile is an aggressive user of technology internally to manage the firm and make better investments. We have particular interest in fintech and salestech.

Versatile VC has the flexibility to invest using an “alternative VC” structure which gives founders flexibility to build their business on whatever path makes sense: become profitable quickly and grow organically, or fuel growth with traditional equity VC.
