Thesis
The firm's investment thesis focuses on companies that are post-product and post-revenue, demonstrating strong product-market fit, double-digit revenue growth, and technically adept founding teams. While their primary focus is B2B AI and SaaS, they also consider investments in Business/Productivity Software and Healthcare Technology Systems, while avoiding consumer apps, gambling, and pure hardware. Valor Ventures actively seeks to lead investments, leveraging their corporate networks and a unique 'Inclusion Premium' model that quantifies diversity and inclusion as financial performance drivers, resulting in a portfolio with a high proportion of underrepresented founders. They utilize a proprietary AI platform, 'Vic,' for deal sourcing and evaluation, and provide extensive founder support through a 'Community of Courage' network, masterclasses, and events. Their latest fund, Valor Fund 3, closed at $27 million, dedicated to seed-stage B2B AI and SaaS companies in the South. Typical check sizes range from $500,000 to $3 million, with 2-3 co-investors per round.
