Heartland Ventures is an early-stage venture capital firm focused on investing in high-growth technology startups disrupting traditional Midwestern industries. The firm co-invests alongside top VCs and Micro VCs, typically participating in seed and Series A rounds, with occasional pre-seed and convertible note investments.

Heartland's unique value proposition lies in connecting portfolio companies with their LP network of large corporations as potential customers in the Midwest. Notable investments include Grabango, kea, and Workstream. The firm's model provides corporate LPs early access to cutting-edge technologies while offering founders access to early-adopter customers in the Heartland region.
