Valia Ventures is a venture capital firm based in San Francisco, specializing in early-stage investments. They are known for backing founders who are building what they believe will be tomorrow's most iconic companies. With a diverse interest in industries such as Software, BioTech, Business Solutions, FinTech, IoT, A.I., HealthTech, Medical Devices, Healthcare, and Wellness, they offer a broad spectrum of opportunities for potential portfolio companies. Their investment strategy includes a Pre-Seed Fund, which invests between $50,000 and $250,000 in very early stages of company development, even as early as pre-revenue or pre-product stages. Their Early-Stage Fund ranges from $250,000 to $1,000,000 for Seed and Series A rounds, with reserved follow-on capital for continued support as businesses grow. Additionally, Valia Ventures features an Opportunity Fund that targets larger checks for mature companies from Series B onwards, as well as exceptional situations that do not fit the traditional venture capital model. They pride themselves on their multi-stage, sector-agnostic bold approach, where big ideas and strong founding teams are at the core of their investment philosophy. With offices not only in San Francisco, but also London and New York, they actively seek out investments globally, considering great founders irrespective of geographical location. Valia's investment process in early-stage rounds is relatively swift, aiming to move from the initial meeting to the investment decision within 2-3 weeks. The fund's assets under management stand at $50,000,000, and they prefer to participate in Pre-Seed, Seed, Early Stage, and Series A funding rounds. Investments typically range from a minimum of $100,000 to a maximum of $200,000, with a sweet spot of approximately $150,000.
