Groove Capital combines a traditional venture fund with an active angel network, giving Minnesota founders both an institutional first check and a group of co-investors and operators, with a focus on founders—especially those from groups historically overlooked by institutional investors—who may not already have wealthy personal networks to raise from. Founded by Reed Robinson, who came from Beta.MN and Twin Cities Startup Week, Groove sources deals through local accelerators, incubators, and community connections, brings angels and experts directly into its diligence process, runs programs like Angel Fest to bring new investors (particularly women) into startup investing, and argues that Minnesota offers global-caliber companies at lower prices than coastal markets.
