Meet the team

Welcome to Collinear Capital.

We are more than just a venture capital firm. We are a community of experts uniquely positioned to:

  • Identify high-potential enterprise B2B startups
  • Provide these startups with critical support and guidance
  • Enable consultants and technologists to share in the financial success of these companies

By engaging our community at every stage — from deal sourcing to scaling — we create a virtuous cycle of value creation for both our portfolio companies and our investors.

We're building more than a fund. We're building a movement that empowers the very people who help enterprise technology succeed to become owners in the next generation of innovation.

We're excited to share our mission with you.
