360 Venture Collective

About The Fund

360 Venture Collective is a venture firm that is both woman-founded and led, characterized by an intentionally inclusive investment thesis. They provide funding and acceleration to pre-seed and seed-stage tech-enabled companies that demonstrate potential for substantial growth and impact. Their focus is on businesses led by historically underestimated founders, specifically within the sectors of FinTech, HealthTech, PropTech, and the Future of Work. The firm supports innovative startups registered and based in the United States that often face challenges in accessing venture capital funding. 360 Venture Collective's team is composed of dynamic professionals like Kelly O'Connell, Ann E. Metzger, and Shelley Iocona, who bring extensive experience from various fields including corporate roles, startups, and entrepreneurial ventures. They, along with a network of advisors, are committed to providing not just financial support but also resources and advisory support to nurture founder success. The firm's ArcAccelerator is designed to support founders through the various stages of transforming their ideas into scalable, marketable solutions that can address large addressable markets and create impact. They position themselves as unifying investment with social responsibility, backing tech-enabled ventures that are socially responsible, inclusive, and innovative, with a particular emphasis on under-voiced and high-potential teams, including LGBTQ+ and women entrepreneurs. Investing in sectors like HealthTech, PropTech, FinTech, and tools for the evolving workforce, 360 Venture Collective leverages market opportunities where they intersect with social responsibility. For instance, they identify the global crisis of health inequity as a strong opportunity for HealthTech innovators, they recognize the rapid evolution in PropTech driven by consumer demands and climate change, and they acknowledge the transformative financial tools needed for traditionally underrepresented individuals to gain financial clarity and control. Their investment strategy includes a minimum investment of $50,000 and a maximum of $500,000, with a sweet spot investment around $275,000 specifically targeted at pre-seed and seed ventures.
