ABOUT OUR THESIS

At C2 Ventures, we believe the most valuable applications of AI-powered SaaS and robotics solutions aren't in the spotlight; they're in the trenches, solving complex problems and delivering immediate, substantial, and quantifiable ROI for enterprise customers in the Dirty, Dull, and Dangerous industries that traditional venture capital often overlooks.
 

These companies face numerous significant and complex problems that require highly sophisticated and innovative solutions, while also catering to non-technical users with well-established day-to-day responsibilities and workflows. 

We therefore look to invest only in companies who are able to utilize AI and other innovative technologies to dramatically accelerate the functionality, utility, and ROI of SaaS and robotics software products designed to handle customers’ most pressing use cases via simple, intuitive UIs that seamlessly align with those end users’ existing responsibilities and workflows.

TESTIMONIALS

OUR MISSION

Founded on the belief that early-stage companies need more than capital, C2 Ventures provides capital, time, and experience to provide first-in-class service to our founders.

OUR STORY

Established in 2014, C2 Ventures launched C2V Capital Partners I, our first institutional venture capital fund in 2019.  We look for companies building enterprise software and robotics solutions for legacy industries with a direct, positive ROI via improvements in productivity, capital efficiency, and profit margins, as well as clean-tech/sustainability solutions with defensible IP and clear customer use cases.  

We seek to maximize these investments by providing consistent, active support to our founders, lending the expertise, time, and experience of our two General Partners, as well as our LP Operator Bench of successful entrepreneurs and tech executives who, consistent with C2V’s mission, have pledged their time and experience in addition to their capital to support the success of our incredible founders.
