Authentic Ventures

About Authentic Ventures

Authentic manages a concentrated portfolio and makes just 4-6 new investments each year. We are hands-on and work closely with our companies. With the help of the Authentic Network, we work partner with exceptional founders to help them succeed. To date, about one third of our investments have been in fintech or software companies serving financial institutions. We invest in founders who share our values. To work with us, you must demonstrate trust, honesty, integrity, inclusion and a willingness to put customers and stakeholders first. We typically invest first in Seed or Seed Extension rounds where we believe we can add the most value. We also selectively invest in Series A and Series B rounds We invest primarily in enterprise software companies. Companies leveraging Machine Learning and AI to drive automation in the enterprise are of particular interest. We also invest in FinTech, digital health, deep tech, and, selectively, in consumer companies.
