Who we are

We do not take equity for our core incubator program, which is free and non-dilutive, while our independent Velocity Fund II typically invests $25K–$1M in pre-seed and seed startups in exchange for a negotiated equity stake.

Funding Requirements

We accelerate early-stage, pre-seed tech startups.

Value add

Velocity supports founders during the riskiest and earliest time of business building. 15 years of experience helped us hone on the most effective ingredients for success: supplying founders with connections, practical and authentic business expertise, product development know-how, space to build a team and develop products cost-effectively, and risk-tolerant capital.
