About January Ventures
January Ventures invests early and opens doors for founders of the future. We bring radical transparency and access to venture capital by removing friction for founders in raising funding. Founders don't need a warm intro, pitch deck or revenue to pitch us. Thematically, we use a wide B2B lens to spot category defining companies within the future of work/productivity, embedded fintech and digital health. We invest at the pre-seed and seed stage with an initial investment size of $250K-750K. We invest across the US and Europe.
We are a "start-up" venture capital firm with an entrepreneurial environment and a lot of opportunity for growth. We are a fully virtual team and have built a culture where team members can bring their full selves to work.
