DEFINING THE FUTURE OF VENTURE

Venture capital is living in a bygone era. Our industry uses its capital to fund
disruption but, ironically, has done little work to disrupt itself. Hierarchy
and homogeneous networks still dominate. Affiliated wealth creation is limited
to closed networks of people. And the “game” is played with “rules” that don’t
best serve founders.

We know that having a diversity of perspectives leads to better outcomes.
Organizations need to hear from enough vantage points to make the most informed
decisions. And democratizing access to wealth creation broadens influence to a
less uniform group.
A change is far overdue.

We believe VC should not only fund the future, but live the future. 


Our team


MEET OUR CREW


Acrew
\ a’kroo \ Noun

The name that we chose for ourselves reflects our commitment to do things
differently. At Acrew, we play VC as a team sport. When you work with us, you
have access to our whole team. Our crew is your crew. And we’re committed to
helping you build out the best team possible.

Our beliefs


DIVERSE PERSPECTIVES DRIVE THE BEST OUTCOMES. PERIOD.



More people than ever are living digital first lives. Building a world changing
company that can reach these broad and far-reaching audiences requires diversity
of perspective. The data clearly shows diversity drives better financial
outcomes.* Not every team will be diverse from the outset - but investors can
and should help their companies to diversify.

Our commitment: We have intentionally built our team with diversity in mind —
our founding team spans three generations, 87% of us are women or PoC, and over
half are immigrants or 1st generation immigrants. Our Crew of Leaders is even
deeper with diverse talent. We will help you add exceptional diverse people and
unique perspectives to your team to improve performance, attract the best
talent, and serve the broadest reaching population.

*startups with diverse leadership teams deliver 30% higher returns (Forbes)


EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE IS A TECHNICAL SKILL.



As work and life increasingly blend, emotional intelligence is a critical skill
— and it’s one that we believe can be developed.

We’ll invest in the ongoing development of ourselves to be the best possible
partners. And we’ll support you in doing the same - we know the founder journey
is full of ups and downs, compromises and tradeoffs. We’ll invest in your
development to help you weather the storms, be a more impactful leader and to be
more balanced in your life.




DECISIONS SHOULD BE MADE WITH DEPTH OF CONVICTION AND ENDURING COMMITMENT.



Depth of thought and conviction should drive investment decisions — not trends
or reactionary responses. And decisions should be long term commitments because
most of the greatest companies are built through endurance.

Our commitment: Our intense thesis orientation means we show up prepared. We
know your space and the people in it — and we are ready to make a decision, only
taking your time for things that actually matter. We will decide to partner with
you out of our own conviction and will make a commitment to be by your side
throughout the founder journey.




WEALTH CREATION SHOULD BE ACCESSIBLE TO A BROADER POPULATION.



For so long, wealth creation has been limited to a select demographic. We
believe VCs can work with their companies to make wealth creation accessible to
a wider population.

Our commitment: We don’t shy away from the opportunity for wealth creation.
We’re just mindful of who we - and, therefore, you - are making money for. When
you achieve success, so do our underrepresented investors. That’s good for
everyone.
