At Vocap, we are dedicated to supporting technology innovation and growth, while upholding a commitment to building great organizations. As an early-stage venture capital firm, we understand the unique role we play in shaping the future of technology and business. Our focus on organizational health, diversity, ethical investment, and social good is integral to our investment strategy, ensuring that we contribute positively to the broader ecosystem in which we operate.
Cultivating the health and values of an organization takes constant attention and work. Every organization has a unique personality, including our own. Our goal is to clearly articulate our commitments to the tech companies we partner with and strive every day to live up to these commitments within our own firm.
We have outlined some of our core beliefs on this page and have also prepared a broader organizational health guidebook of curated ideas, discussions, and our own experience, which you can find here – Organizational Health Guidebook .
We believe that socially responsible practices are key to unlocking extraordinary potential in the world of innovation and entrepreneurship. We recognize the importance of this within our firm but also within the companies we invest in. We are committed to supporting and investing in companies that foster inclusive cultures, value diverse perspectives, and maintain fair labor practices.
We believe in the power of ethical business practices. We invest in B2B software companies that demonstrate a commitment to ethical operations, data security, and privacy. We encourage our portfolio companies to consider the broader implications of their products and services, promoting sound environmental practices, transparency and responsibility in all aspects of their business.
Integrity and accountability are the cornerstones of our firm and our investment philosophy. We uphold stringent governance standards and expect the same from our portfolio companies. We engage closely with our investments to ensure they have robust governance structures in place, promoting ethical conduct, transparency, and accountability to all stakeholders.
We seek to build a portfolio of diverse entrepreneurs and startups from varied backgrounds and communities. Our team of professionals and advisors is composed of individuals from a multitude of backgrounds, ensuring a wide range of perspectives in every decision we make.
We strive for fairness within our firm and in our interactions with the broader business community. This means equitable access to funding, resources, and opportunities for all entrepreneurs, regardless of their race, gender, sexual orientation, disability, or socioeconomic background. We recognize that attention and action are required to ensure equal opportunities for all.
We foster an inclusive environment where all voices are heard and valued. This extends to our firm’s culture, our investment practices, and the companies we support. We believe that an inclusive approach leads to better decision-making, stronger teams, and more successful companies.
Our commitment to social responsibility is an ongoing journey. We continuously seek to learn and improve. We partner with organizations that hold shared values in the venture capital ecosystem and engage in open dialogues to better understand and address the challenges faced by underrepresented groups.
