About the firm
We’re invested inour mission.
We partner with early-stage founders disrupting the massive markets of DevOps and developer tools, digital health, and fintech.
Our Story
We’ve been on both sides of the table.
Founded in 2017 in Grand Rapids, Michigan, Grand Ventures was built on the belief that exceptional companies can come from anywhere and that great founders deserve investors who bring more than capital.
Our team combines decades of experience building, operating, and investing in technology companies. We’ve experienced the challenges of scaling businesses, navigating difficult decisions, and creating meaningful outcomes. That experience shapes how we invest and how we work with founders.
Today, we invest primarily across North America, with select investments in Europe and Israel. We bring deep sector knowledge, strong networks, and practical operating experience to every partnership.
We’re proud of our Midwest roots, but our ambitions and those of the founders we back have never been limited by geography.
