What We Do
Square Peg Startup is a seed-stage and early-stage venture fund investing in entrepreneurial teams capable of turning great ideas into game-changing enterprises.
Investment
We invest in both proven and unproven teams attacking attractive opportunities (including unproven markets) with innovative solutions and/or effective pragmatic approaches.
Teams
We are most interested in teams creating solutions to alleviate legitimate pain-points and products or services that provide a demonstrable value-add to their target customers.
Market Opportunity
A solution to a problem whether novel, simple, complex, sexy or unsexy is a market opportunity. Show us how it makes money, and we’ll listen to what you have to say.
Passion
We aren’t generally interested in a new version of an old concept; your idea, market, business model, and path to success must be well thought out and clearly articulated.
