We founded NCV with a single purpose - to have a strategic and positive impact on every startup we invest in and drive strong returns. We do this by providing mentorship, tactical guidance and expertise, capital, and access to our vast network.
The collective expertise of our senior members, boasting over 1000 years of collective experience at marquis companies and in executive leadership roles, is truly exceptional. The best way to describe it is that our team has ‘been there, done that, got a T-shirt!’. That, is the strength of knowledge and expertise at our founders fingertips!
We are thoughtful and active investors, and have devised a thorough review and diligence process so that we can really get under the hood with our founders and make thoughtful, aligned, and impactful capital investments. We are proud to say that we do in fact ‘put our money where our mouth is’ and back our founders from $1 through exit.
