Ripple Ventures partners with inception-stage founders who are building advanced technologies, aiming to be the first committed partner to exceptional entrepreneurs. The firm focuses on pre-incorporation, pre-product, and pre-traction opportunities in AI, deep tech, services, science, infrastructure, and vertical use cases, primarily backing Canadian and United States startups that sell to global markets.
The firm typically writes cheques of $250,000 to $1 million USD and leads or co-leads seed and early-stage rounds, providing strategic mentorship, operational support, and introductions to customers, talent, and downstream investors. Ripple Ventures also operates The Tank, a Toronto-based incubator and community for portfolio companies, and produces the Tank Talks podcast covering Canadian and cross-border technology markets.
