With ~$500M under management, Correlation Ventures leverages a data-driven process to make fast follow on decisions when a round is coming together with at least one VC writing their first check into the company at the same time. Due to our speed, value-add and ease to work with (since we don’t repeat diligence or take board seats), Correlation has become the ideal financing option for founders and lead VCs since we have a flexible ownership target. Correlation can write checks anywhere from $100K and $4M per round is stage and sector agnostic as long as the company is based in the US. Selected portfolio companies I have been excited to lead investments into at Correlation include: Roam, Angle Health, Loop Returns, Zenlytic, Sounding Board, Formic, Mercantile, Sonoro, PredictionStrike, Bond Sports and more.
