GoingVC Partners

GVC Partners is the independent investment vehicle founded by the GoingVC Team

As a unique entity, we are able to leverage our partnership with the professional development program, GoingVC, to access a vast, global network of both young and experienced investors to source, track, diligence, invest in, and support startups – not just in the epicenters of technology and innovation – but around the world.

In this way, GVC Partners acts as a catalyst to help launch both the businesses we invest in, as well as the VC careers of many of the members of GoingVC. And, vitally, as our network of these new founders and investors expands, these beginnings we are able to facilitate are amplified.

Stage - Pre-Seed and Seed

We invest early and like to stick with our startups for the long-haul – reserving follow-on capital for growth rounds down the road.

Sector - Agnostic

We look for compelling companies across a range of industries, led by founders who we think will lead these industries into tomorrow.

Geography - Global

Our network spans 7 countries & 40 cities, giving us eyes and ears across the world. While a majority of our investments are US-based, we will occasionally invest abroad if the opportunity is compelling and we feel we can add value.

As of now, GVC Partners will not lead any deal and will aim to syndicate investments into the companies it backs.
