irrvrntVC is a venture capital firm headquartered in New York, USA, specializing in early-stage and seed investments with focus areas including Direct to Consumer (DTC), AdTech, NextGen Commerce, Vertical SaaS, Fintech, and Marketplaces. They typically invest between $150,000 and $350,000 at the inception of companies or in startups with significant traction ready to raise their pre-seed (angel) or seed rounds.

The fund believes in a strong founder-market fit and invests in founders who are building in large industries.

As former founders and operators themselves, they get actively involved with their portfolio companies, working alongside the founders before, during, and after the funding rounds, assisting with access to capital, hiring the right team, finding office space, or pivoting business strategies. irrvrntVC's hands-on approach extends to scoping out Total Addressable Market (TAM), workshopping business models, and discussing product-market fit.
