Overview

FirstMile Ventures is a partner-only venture capital fund dedicated to being the initial financial partner to founders aiming to create category-defining companies, particularly in Colorado and Texas - two of the fastest-growing tech talent hubs outside the coasts.

As generalists, FirstMile Ventures does not confine its investments to specific industries, and its diverse portfolio is a testament to its broad interest and expertise. They emphasize early-stage investments, identifying companies with exponential growth potential and providing them with the strategic insights and financial support necessary to navigate the challenges of scaling from zero to one.

The mission of FirstMile Ventures is rooted in forming strong, collaborative relationships with its founders. They prioritize offering the necessary guidance, mentorship, and capital to help these businesses flourish. The team at FirstMile Ventures comprises founders, operators, and investors with a wealth of experience, including those who've founded companies that went public and invested in unicorns. This deep reservoir of expertise allows them to craft tailored company-building strategies that align with each founder's vision and stage in their startup journey.

FirstMile Ventures also prides itself on its direct partner-founder relationships, a critical factor for navigating the seed phase of any company. This approach is bolstered by their extensive networks in Colorado and Texas, offering invaluable support and resources to help founders grow their businesses from initial concepts to market leaders. Testimonials from CEOs of companies like BurstIQ, Cloud Elements, Teltoo, Topbox, Altia, Hedera & Swirlds, and IronCore Labs underline the firm’s unwavering support and intuitive understanding of early-stage ventures.
