Investment Thesis

Fortify Ventures operates on the belief that ‘together, we are better’ and focuses on placing bets on exceptional teams with unique superpowers rather than following a checklist-based approach. They believe startups are society’s best tool for problem-solving and provide portfolio companies with robust community support and operational guidance to maximize impact. The firm builds conviction holistically by getting to know companies and their founders, valuing innovation over iteration and emphasizing that ‘the right people embracing the right resources at the right time have a better shot at success.’

What Sets Them Apart

  • People-first approach focused on founding team superpowers and complementary skills rather than business model checklist
  • Emphasis on defensible technology requiring 2+ years to replicate or $2M+ to develop (deep tech focus)
  • Strong belief in 10x innovation vs. incremental iteration
  • Revenue-focused leadership and path to profitability emphasis ('cash is king')
  • Network-driven model integrating operators, thinkers, executors, and change-makers beyond just capital
  • Willingness to invest at idea-stage into ambitious founders with disruptive intent
  • Founder-first operational support extending from beginning to exit
