ABOUT STARTUPVC24
Startup ’s Entrepreneurial Origins
Like many entrepreneurial stories, Startupvc24's began with the recognition that there was a problem to be solved. After five years of making Series A investments in Colorado, our founder, Adrian Gordon, saw that the lack of seed capital in Colorado and the West was hurting entrepreneurs and that the ecosystem needed a seed fund. In 2008, Adrian worked with local universities, angel investors, entrepreneurs, venture capital funds, and other key stakeholders to build a seed fund that the community could rally behind. Following the launch of its first $8M fund, Startup became known for being accessible, willing to lead investments in promising but early teams, and for being fair with entrepreneurs and investors alike. StartupVCÂ Seed Fund quickly became the most active investor in Colorado and is now synonymous with seed capital in the region.
