Purple Arch Ventures is a community of Northwestern alums: investors, executives, entrepreneurs, and innovation enthusiasts with a connection to Northwestern or its graduate schools. At our core, we are a Northwestern alum venture fund investing in Northwestern alum-led companies. We are private, for profit, and not part of Northwestern. We strongly believe that we can do better investing in VC together than any of us can do alone.

P3rceive is on a mission to democratize simulation and modelling. Consider: Each year business leaders wonder about results, the optimal staffing mix to drive results, and ways to optimize their processes to achieve the desired performance. Despite advances in technology, there are no tools to help them model and simulate outcomes. P3rceive gives executives a view into possible futures so they can make decisions now. The platform provides the ability to view these future outcomes based on current or planned assets, constraints and performance. Business simulation and modeling will be the new de-facto language of planning.
