[company_age]2.0[/company_age][employees]1-10 employees[/employees][funding]seed[/funding][description]Serac Ventures is an early-stage venture capital firm that invests in a diverse community of founders building a different future. They believe that the best outcomes come from people with non-traditional backgrounds who bring a different perspective to solve problems. Serac Ventures was started to back these founders and identify innovative technologies that create long-term value for founders and investors. They invest in companies building technologies that expand access to capital and financial services and make work faster, more secure, and more productive. They typically write checks between $250K to $750K. They look for companies with a finished product, revenue, a growing customer base, and a scalable and capital efficient business model. Startups at this stage have made enough progress to demonstrate viability, but need their help getting to the next major inflection point. They take a long-term view and proactively reach out to entrepreneurs, often before they’re raising capital, to position themselves as hands-on investors in it for the long haul. This helps them determine how to best serve each of their portfolio companies as partners in their journey to scale. They emphasize that they do more than just write a check from day one with every founder that they back. In addition to regularly meeting with their portfolio companies, they also created the Serac Ventures Guild (or Serac Guild) to provide founders with insights and strategic guidance through their team of experts.[/description][ps]Venture capital investments[/ps]
