FAQ
What is your typical check size?
Typically $250K–$2M+ for early investments, with meaningful follow-on reserves. We deploy around $25M annually into venture deals.

Yes, we frequently lead rounds and serve on boards and act as advisors. We are also comfortable participating alongside other investors.
How quickly do you make investment decisions?
We're known for speed: We aim to give a clear yes/no within days of initial review, not months. If it fits our thesis and we see potential, we move fast to help you build momentum.
What kind of support do you provide beyond capital?

What investment stages do you focus on?
We are primarily focused on Seed and Series A stages, or companies with $1-2M in revenue. We look for teams that have moved past the initial ideation phase and are ready to scale.
What is your geographic focus?
While we invest primarily in Utah-based companies, we also look at opportunities across the broader Mountain West region. We prioritize local founders for our hands-on support, networks, and quick decisions, though we co-invest nationally when it fits.
How can founders prepare for a conversation?
Come ready with your one-pager/deck highlighting problem, solution, traction/metrics, team, and ask. Be transparent about challenges. We value honesty and long-term relationships over perfection.
What industries or verticals do you invest in?
Primarily B2B SaaS, enterprise software, healthcare/tech-enabled services, fintech, and innovative tech. We're sector-agnostic if the team and opportunity are exceptional, but we love capital-efficient models with clear paths to value creation.
How do I submit a pitch?
The best way is a warm intro through our network (portfolio founders, Utah Angels, events). Cold? Send a concise one-pager or deck via LinkedIn or our site contact form.We review quickly and respond within days.
