Whiteboard Venture Partners

What is Whiteboard Venture Partners?

Whiteboard Venture Partners is an investment fund that specializes in merging, pre-seed, and seed-stage investments. They take a fearless approach to venture investing, partnering with entrepreneurs when their ideas are still in the conception phase—akin to being on a whiteboard. They have a keen interest in working with entrepreneurs who are creating value by addressing emerging and disruptive cybersecurity use cases across different industry value chains.

Their investment portfolio focuses on a variety of industries, including software (Web Marketplace SaaS, etc.), business solutions, IoT and wearables, web security and privacy, cloud services and infrastructure, developer tools, payments, and robotics. With a minimum investment of $100,000 and a maximum of $1,000,000, they prefer to target their investments at the 'sweet spot' of $500,000.

The services offered by Whiteboard Venture Partners are multifaceted, extending beyond capital to include things like applying to be a fellow with the firm, joining their talent roster, becoming a service provider, and participating in various community ventures such as CISO Ventures, Parents Ventures, and Rutgers Ventures.

They also provide learning resources like upcoming events, slides, videos, and podcasts.

Whiteboard Venture Partners encourages an iterative approach to start-up growth, encompassed by the stages of ideation, experimentation, measurement, modification, and scaling. Their aim is to support the courageous journey of experimentation and learning from mistakes, aligning with their belief in the words of Albert Einstein: 'A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new.'
