Invest with the VCs on The Pitch
π π
After eight years of storytelling and hundreds of recorded pitches, we launched our debut fund to let the general public invest in the startups featured on the show.
In 2023 we raised $2.4 million and deployed $1.2M in ten startups. You can listen to those investments here.
Our hit business podcast 'The Pitch' gives us unique deal flow from all over the US and abroad. Founders want access to our trusted VC network, and the storytelling power of hundreds-of-thousands of founders, investors and executives who listen to our show.
We invest with the investors on The Pitch
The Pitch Fund is an opportunistic, generalist fund that invests at the pre-seed and seed stage. Our team finds talented founders with a story to tell and we bring them in front of top-tier VC's like Charles Hudson, Cyan Banister, Jillian Manus, Mac Conwell and Elizabeth Yin to see who gets funding.
Our core investment strategy for the fund is simple: we co-invest with the investors on our show. We let these savvy investors set the terms, and then we invest alongside them.
Note: We will occasionally invest in deals the VCs do not make on the show, but we always try to tell the true story of how those deals came about and who we invested alongside.
Unique deal flow
+ expert investors weighing in
+ world-class storytelling on The Pitch
= a fund that outperforms.
