DTN Ventures

DTN Ventures is an early-stage investor with a mission inspired by our friend and mentor who lived boldly by principles like “Don’t bet against Brett” and “Damn the naysayers”. He was a serial entrepreneur whose infectious enthusiasm and energetic intellect touched everything he did, and everyone he worked with. He loved a great idea, he executed with class, and ties weren’t optional. If you are an entrepreneur or a founder with an idea or an early stage company, and you like our attitude, we want to back you (ties optional). The DTN team has been investing together for over 15 years in a variety of verticals. We do not have any specific types of industries or sectors that we will not consider, but companies with the following characteristics would tend to be less of a priority for investment compared to others: * Companies that have been “treading water” without proven viability or a market evolution that would impact a company’s potential; * Those entering into crowded markets without game-changer potential; * Businesses with products that require significant, long-term direct-to-consumer marketing and advertising in order to achieve market acceptance.
