Day One Ventures

About Day One Ventures

We are a venture capital firm that invests in early-stage tech companies and spearheads their communications. We invest in game-changers. These are disruptive, impactful businesses that want to fundamentally change industries and solve some of today’s biggest challenges – social, business, or otherwise. Using our years of marketing and communications expertise, we actively help our companies grow by crafting compelling stories and telling those stories to the world. That's how we differentiate Day One companies from the rest. We approach venture capital as the cultivation of a goal-centric community, one in which our partners, advisors, and startup founders are united in a shared vision of a better world. The companies we invest in should feel at home in our community and also fall into at least one of the following three categories: DISRUPTIVE TECHNOLOGY Companies reaching for the stars with hard-to-imitate technology in emerging fields such as machine learning, AR/VR, marketplaces, fintech, and ed-tech. IMPACTFUL ACTION Companies seeking to fundamentally change areas such as employment and healthcare through technical innovation in order to serve modern needs. COMMUNITY DRIVEN Companies that live harmoniously with their community — they rely on an active and loyal audience, who in turn relies on them.
