Investment Thesis

Matr Ventures is a data-driven investment firm that prioritizes founder success through capital investment combined with extensive network connectivity. They describe themselves as ‘A Data-driven Investment Firm - Where relationships + humans are at the centre’ and believe that ‘Building a scalable company and optimizing the exit value is a network endeavor.’ The firm is led by exited founders and operators who invest capital, practical know-how, and robust network support to achieve founder success, portfolio growth, and exits.

What Sets Them Apart

  • Proprietary deal flow through curated 400+ advisor network (PowerUp Network) that goes beyond ecosystem players like Nvidia, MaRS, Harvard, MIT, University of Chicago, Princeton, Intel Ignite, USC, and Techstars
  • Investment committee composed entirely of exited founders and operators with deep operating experience
  • PowerUp Network advisors have collectively founded 500+ companies, achieved 190+ exits, and raised $10.2B in funding
  • Network explicitly described as 'Arguably more valuable than capital' - providing exclusive access to deep tech experts, PhDs, exited founders, engineers, corporate leaders, VCs, and influencers
  • Three-pronged network approach: 1) Sources proprietary deals, 2) Powers portfolio growth, 3) Propels valuable exits
  • Founder-first ethos where 'Founders First, everything else is secondary'
