With 70% of all venture funding flowing into just three states (California, New York and Massachusetts), tens of thousands of founders are overlooked and left unfunded. Frontier innovators build companies outside of venture hubs and create the opportunity for outsized returns for Limited Partners through better market dynamics. The lack of available resources requires frontier founding teams to build capital efficient businesses while prioritizing investments in employee retention. By rejecting the growth-at-any-cost and talent-as-a commodity mindsets, these founders lower risk and increase upside for investors.
