About Urban Capital Network

UCN aims to radically level the playing field of the early-stage investment ecosystem by democratizing access for a broader pool of investors and generating vital capital for underserved entrepreneurs. Boost Funds ▪ UCN Boost Funds are “mini funds” that co-invest directly into venture-backed companies, alongside top-performing venture firms. Access to these investment opportunities is exclusive and is often a result of our Horizon Fund investments. ▪ 5 – 10 investments in high-growth companies. ▪ Notable investments: Label Insight, Televet, Liongard, Cart.com Elevator Funds ▪ UCN Elevator Funds are impact-focused. UCN allocates a portion of its management fees and profits to invest exclusively in minority and women founders. When possible, we extend those investment opportunities to our network through our Elevator Funds. ▪ 5 – 10 investments in early-stage, high-growth potential, minority-founded or co-founded companies. ▪ Our most affordable fund with a $5k investment minimum. ▪ Over $500K invested in minorities and women founders ▪ Notable investments: Oya, Upgrade, GigOut, Woobie, Clutch, Fundr Specialty Funds ▪ UCN often gets access to rare and exclusive investment opportunities that don’t fit within one of our open funds.
