In addition to providing capital, we leverage our experience in starting and growing companies, our expertise in the technology industry, and our network of relationships to help outstanding entrepreneurs and venture capital fund managers turn great ideas into great companies.

We provide fast access to capital, making investment decisions in under two weeks, and are very flexible on terms and investment size. Correlation Ventures only invests in private, US-headquartered companies, and we only invest where at least one venture firm co-investing in the round is also making its first investment in the company.
