Versatile VC is building the VC firm they wanted to back them as founders. They focus on early-stage, capital-efficient companies in the ‘investment tech’ space and exploit two market inefficiencies: VCs’ general disinterest in companies outside narrowly defined sectors despite many fast-growth businesses existing outside traditional tech, and VC bias against non-White/Asian male founders and those outside core geographies despite data showing diversity outperforms.
What Sets Them Apart
- Specialized focus on 'investment tech' - companies serving professional investors (hedge funds, PE, family offices, VCs) rather than broad fintech
- Founder-first mentorship approach with dedicated services including recruiting, customer development, skill building, and access to network of investors
- Aggressive internal use of technology to manage the firm and make better investments
- Commitment to investing outside major tech hubs (targeting 50% of investments outside NY, CA, Massachusetts)
- Explicit focus on diverse and underrepresented founders (targets 30% female/trans and 40% underrepresented minority cofounder/C-level representation)
- Flexible deal structures including alternative VC structures beyond traditional equity
- Deep expertise in private capital markets disruption through decade of research and board membership in AltsTech community
