What We Do

Connected Capital invests in high-potential, post-revenue Seed-Series A startups that have been rigorously vetted through our months-long diligence, development, and partnership validation process. Our hands-on engagement dramatically reduces risk, enhances growth trajectory, and increases exit potential—driving strong returns through M&A or IPO pathways.

Curriculum

We develop and work with 50-70 founders through a variety of accelerators, bootcamps, and engagements for months on technology commercialization and strategic partnerships to ensure success with corporate partners and scaling of their technologies. We facilitate in-person programs where our team gets intimately involved in the sales and go-to-market for startups selected.

Connections

The top 15-20 startups from the funnel become clients where we reach out to key strategic partners to validate the market and establish go-to-market relationships turning promising companies into potential acquisition targets in 36-48 months. We help startups negotiate the best commercial deal beginning to end, establishing an acquisition pipeline.

Capital

We then invest $1M-$3M in the best of the best (5-8 annually) startups that have seen clear market signal to indicate the scaling of the startup. We focus on de-risking the startups and ensuring investment is based on scale and execution rather than simply product-market-fit. Investments skew in our favor as we are the catalyst for the success resulting in better valuations and reduced risk investments.

Our (Not So Secret) Formula

By investing only in startups that have already demonstrated strong market signals, we dramatically reduce risk while ensuring high-growth potential. Our strategy maximizes valuation and exit outcomes, ensuring the best returns for both our investors and portfolio companies.
