Inertia Ventures is a New York-based venture capital fund that focuses specifically on disrupting large, slow-moving industries like real estate, finance, insurance, and logistics through B2B AI/ML software, rather than being a generalist fund. Despite being a small, early-stage firm founded around 2020-2021, Inertia has built an unusually strong portfolio of unicorn companies including Betterment, Carta, DocuSign, and Pacaso by taking a hands-on, finance-heavy approach to evaluating startups' unit economics and go-to-market strategies.
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.
