Calibrate Ventures grew out of a longtime friendship and partnership. We share conviction that relationships drive success. It’s a decision that has helped foster trust and honest dialogue in all our interactions. For the last 14 years we have invested together in start-ups, leveraging a formidable community of investors, founders and partners to deliver powerful results.
Our aligned beliefs are what make Calibrate Ventures a deeply connected and effective team, one that continues to lure the best entrepreneurs and companies with our track record of outsized returns.
We are a partner-only firm with no junior investment professionals. Our decisions are guided by our founding values, not herd mentality or politics.
We back startups that have demonstrated early signs of commercial success, and we support them through the inflection point of their business. We pursue markets and teams with robust product vision that can scale to hundreds of millions in revenue. Calibrate Ventures is an early stage/early revenue venture capital firm.
Calibrate Ventures invests right-sized capital at the inflection point for rapidly accelerating growth.
We focus on Advanced Automation, B2B SaaS, and Managed Marketplaces
