G20 Ventures

G20 invests in early-stage enterprise software companies ($2-5M Series A range) at the inflection point of customer validation, primarily on the East Coast where their network is strongest. They look for great teams solving big problems with strong product-market fit potential, preferring technology risk over market risk and avoiding 100% consumer-facing businesses.

Investment Thesis

G20 Ventures operates on the principle that ‘venture doesn’t scale’ in the traditional sense—they believe VC is fundamentally a business of human relationships requiring focus and reflection. They take a ‘People First’ approach to investing, emphasizing that good business is personal. The firm was built to deliver more value to entrepreneurs without adding overhead for investors, starting as a community in 2013 with hand-picked operators and founders, eventually evolving into a fund model. They help entrepreneurs transition from doing things themselves to building scalable systems, focusing on relationships over transactions.

What Sets Them Apart

  • Human-scale VC fund (on their fourth fund) with exceptionally low failure rate—only 3 companies from first three funds failed, 'a track record almost unheard of in VC'
  • Reserve capital for every deal, staying invested 'all the way to the finish line' with portfolio companies
  • Concentrated risk model where 'everyone mattered and no one was disposable'
  • Three-part value proposition: 'Smart Money' (efficient capital use), 'Great Storytelling' (community building), and 'The Right Connections' (network of entrepreneurs, operators, and investors)
  • Community-driven approach with G20 Members program providing access to successful entrepreneurs and operators
  • Boston-based but active nationwide, with extra commitment to local startup community
  • Hands-on partnership approach—'We show up for meetings, prepared and on time. We pay attention, and offer help with humility'
