Mudita Venture Partners is a venture capital firm that is different by design. We deploy approximately 80% of our capital in early-stage, post-revenue companies focusing on AI-first B2B solutions. The remaining 20% of capital is allocated to Mudita Studios, which turns raw ideas into fundable companies. We believe extraordinary returns and meaningful impact can — and should — coexist. Through a principled, hands-on approach, we back founders who are building companies that help people live and lead better lives. More than capital, we bring deep operational expertise, a philosophy of co-creation, and a team of experienced operators committed to moving at founder speed. We offer a venture model built for what’s next, not just what’s worked before.

Our mission is to create a new world of work where the system serves people (not the other way around).

The world is changing at an exponential rate. As technologies like robotics, quantum computing, and generative AI enter the mainstream, our organizations, governments, and communities are at risk of being left behind with no chance of catching up. The previous cycle of letting others be innovative, working out bugs, and then adopting their strategies is no longer viable if you are to remain relevant. The cycle of "Imitation as Innovation" is broken and needs to stop. Thats where Origin AI (Augmented Intelligence) steps in. Origin AI was founded on one simple principle: leave no one behind. Founded by two serial tech entrepreneurs, Origin AI is more than just a technology or consulting company. Rather than uniting over technology, the founders have united over helping people. Co-founder John McElligott grew up on the mission field and watched his father plant churches in the United Kingdom. From London to the cliffs of Falcarragh Ireland, John watched his father relentlessly pursue those he felt needed to be included, and that deep-seated belief is still a main driver for John today. On the flip side, Co-founder Frankie Russo grew up in a family that ran homeless shelters in Pittsburgh, PA and Lafayette, LA. Frankie watched his parents feed the hungry, clothe the poor, and provide a roof over the heads of the homeless. It is on the deep-seated belief that everyone deserves an opportunity that Origin AI is founded on.

Hard-wiring growth by realigning People, Product, and Positioning. Stalled revenue. Burned-out teams. Products that miss the mark. Behind every symptom is one root problem: mis-alignment. We fix that. The Growth Co. installs a rhythm that begins where EOS and culture platforms stop. We turn genius-fit people, inflection-point products, and category-owning narratives into one measurable loop. Big firms sell armies; design studios sell prototypes; we sell momentum tied to live KPIs. Our collective of operators, product builders, and brand strategists installs GRŌ OS™, a practical operating rhythm, that: 1. Realigns People so every role fires in its natural genius 2. Refocuses Product around true customer value and faster launches 3. Sharpens Positioning so deals close on story, not on price Engagements begin with a focused Growth Pulse. From there we embed beside your team, roll out live scoreboards that track momentum, and leave a repeatable cadence you can run long after we’re gone. No thick slide decks, just measurable lift. ↳ Mid-market to enterprise orgs looking for fresh momentum? ↳ Ready to sync people, product, and market story?
