Sidespin Ventures

Sidespin Ventures is a pre-seed and seed stage firm providing capital, mentorship, and hands-on assistance to entrepreneurs building transformative technology companies. The ideal time for us to get involved is up to and including the Seed round. We look for fundamental technical innovation in a frontier technology (aka, ‘deep tech’) like machine learning and AI, new market creation, and a uniquely qualified team. We are sector agnostic, but exclude certain verticals, such as content, media, advertising, information arbitrage, and a few others. We do not require advisory shares to offer hands-on help. Call when you need us. We actively help our CEOs with strategy, messaging, recruiting, introductions, and whatever else is needed. Occasionally, we offer to get involved as an advisor even if we do not invest, primarily to build a relationship towards a potential financial relationship. Our investment size varies based on the opportunity. We typically do not lead rounds, and at the stages where we get involved, there may not even be a lead investor. We expect to support our companies via follow-on rounds through their Series A.
