First Capital Ventures

About The Fund

First Capital Ventures is a venture capital firm established in 2005 and situated in Denver, Colorado. They specialize in venture capital and growth equity investments, focusing on high growth companies leveraging innovative technologies capable of disrupting or establishing new industries. They primarily invest in sectors such as Hardware (& Manufacturing), IoT (& Wearables), A.I. (& Big Data), and Cannabis. First Capital Ventures adopts an 'investment edge' philosophy, which they term 'Venture Choice.' This involves creating Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs) for each investment, offering investors full transparency, unlike the traditional closed-end fund approach. The firm seeks to minimize risk by typically avoiding startup seed investments and favoring opportunities that have surpassed the proof of concept phase and show signs of commercial traction. They evaluate exit strategies for each investment, mainly targeting a 24-36 month investment horizon. Their investment strategy is to look for high-impact investments at early stages of company development, that show promise for superior growth prospects. They prioritize a selective number of opportunities and strive for full transparency, allowing investors to comprehensively evaluate potential investments. Moreover, First Capital Ventures emphasizes the joint venture between investor intellect and capital, aiming for risk-adjusted returns. They encourage their investor network to contribute wisdom and experience during the due diligence process, which underscores the firm's dedication to integrity, economic sensibility, and social consciousness in investments.
