Gravity Ventures

About The Fund

Gravity Ventures is a member-managed venture capital fund founded in 2008, focusing on seed and early-stage investments. They operate primarily in the technology and tech-enabled sectors across various industries. With a portfolio that spans beyond a single state, Gravity Ventures has established funds in both Indiana and Arkansas. The firm takes pride in its collaborative approach to investing, featuring a group of experienced investors and accomplished entrepreneurs who eschew traditional executive hierarchies in favor of a flat, cooperative decision-making process. Their investment teams are characterized by their personable nature and dedication to supporting ambitious entrepreneurship, making decisions collectively rather than individually. While they are committed to nurturing the growth of early-stage ventures, these investors are also actively engaged in their own full-time careers, family lives, and personal ventures. This unique investment philosophy emphasizes not only the ideas but also the people behind them, recognizing the importance of the human element in the entrepreneurial journey. Gravity Ventures states that they do not simply invest in ideas, but in people, underscoring their belief that the success of a business is as much about the team as it is about the concept. Gravity Ventures has managed several funds, with the earliest, Gravity Ventures Indiana 1 (GVI 1), launched in 2008, followed by multiple others, each with a record of various investments. The firm has seen numerous exits or acquisitions within its portfolio, indicating a history of picking successful ventures. Their cooperative administration of the investment portfolio and their collective decision-making process define their grassroots approach to venture capital. Entrepreneurs engaging with Gravity Ventures will find a team that is invested in and accessible to the entrepreneurial community, offering personal and professional support in realizing the potential of innovative businesses.
