Startups are for the bold and adventurous.You need the right partner.

LET’S BUILD

FIRST CHECK IN

It's important to us that we're your first call out - but we'd also like to be your first check in. Come to us as early as you'd like. We'd love to be your first true believer and partner with you through it all.

OPERATOR MENTALITY

We've started, built, grown, turned-around, merged, and sold companies as members of executive teams. We've gotten our hands dirty and taken our lumps. We've been pretty successful here and there, too. So, at Impellent, we bring an operator-first mentality into every company we fund. It's the only way we know how to do it.

CITY AGNOSTIC, DIVERSITY-FOCUSED

Now more than ever, innovation is poised to thrive outside of major cities and traditional demographic silos. We deliver outsized impact by pairing technology and talent from established entrepreneurial ecosystems with emerging entrepreneurial clusters. We invest anywhere and in anyone taking the chance to build the future.

FOUNDER, NOT INDUSTRY, FOCUSED

The future of cities is led by entrepreneurial vision, responsiveness, and cross-sector innovation, not specialization. If you’re addressing a major technology challenge, we’re here for it.

WE ALWAYS ASK "WHAT IF THIS WORKS?" WITH EVERY OPPORTUNITY WE'RE SHOWN

Who likes pessimists, anyway? Show us how big you think. We love that sh*t.
