Founded in 2011, Chicago Ventures is an seed-stage venture capital firm based in Chicago, Illinois. The firm primarily invests in the technology, healthcare IT, media and education products and services, consumer web and mobile sectors.
We invest in overlooked teams. We believe enduring companies can be built anywhere, by anyone. We lead seed rounds before it’s obvious, and serve as active, operationally-involved partners during a company’s earliest days. We've funded toys, rebuilds, spin-outs, un-scalables, small TAMs, and unproven founders.
