Reynolds and Company Venture Partners

About The Fund

Reynolds and Company Venture Partners is an investment firm focused on investing in and partnering with entrepreneurs to realize their vision and build successful businesses. They primarily invest in high growth seed stage companies offering products or services that enhance convenience or efficiency for their customers. The firm's primary focus is on consumer facing products and services, while also investing in service businesses that facilitate consumer brands to scale and grow efficiently, covering a spectrum of needs from HR or logistics services to sales management and data. They look for founders who are deeply committed to solving problems that they care about personally, which also impact a broader audience. Preferably, they invest in simple business models and categories that may not appear exciting but are poised for innovation. For seed stage companies, they seek those with product(s) in market, at least $500,000 in revenues, demonstrable sales data, a complementary team in place, and raising capital between $300,000 to $2,380,000, which is their maximum investment limit. Their investment process is highly selective, making 1 to 3 investments annually, with the ability to move quickly—completing diligence and investment within 1-2 months. They invest using instruments like SAFE agreements, convertible notes, and equity, supporting portfolio companies through Series B, without typically being lead investors. Reynolds and Company Venture Partners value the non-linear path of business growth, applying lessons from successes and failures to assist their portfolio companies. They share their knowledge in facing high growth challenges and decision points, offering hands-on engagement to refine strategies and develop solutions for changing conditions. They are based in New York, New York, with a commitment to share their learned lessons and provide support to entrepreneurs in realizing their vision while they grow their enterprises.
