Our Story

We are classmates…not outsiders. We see founders before the pitch decks and before the polish. Nothing is glamorized. We know how they build, how they lead, and what they care about, and thus this gives us a real filter on founder quality. Our checks are smaller, faster, and friendlier—designed to help get MVPs to users. We plan to be the first VC to deploy capital to our startup companies.

We don’t fund ideas. We fund mvps. MVP = minimum bar to show execution. Our team reviews product, not just pitch. This helps avoid spray-and-pray that has taken over this saturated market.

At Dishwood Ventures, we believe in a client-centric approach to finance. We are dedicated to building long-term relationships with our portfolio companies and providing them with personalized solutions tailored to their specific needs.
