RapidFort, Inc. is a leading software supply chain security company that provides an innovative platform designed to automatically secure container applications and accelerate compliance processes. The companys comprehensive solution addresses critical cybersecurity challenges by removing up to 95% of Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) from container images without requiring any code changes. RapidForts unified platform offers three core capabilities: curated near-zero CVE container images with FIPS 140-3 validation and daily builds, DevTime protection tools that generate Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) and Real Bill of Materials (RBOM) for vulnerability remediation, and RunTime protection that automatically secures unused components and reduces software attack surfaces by 60-90%. The platform serves organizations seeking to reduce development costs by 10%, accelerate software releases by 2-3 weeks, and achieve faster compliance with FedRAMP, cATO, CMMC, and SOC2 standards. RapidForts solution integrates seamlessly with existing development workflows and technology stacks, consuming less than 1% system overhead while providing comprehensive security hardening. Trusted by government agencies including the U.S. Air Force and Space Force, as well as enterprise customers, RapidFort addresses the growing challenge of software supply chain security by eliminating "zombie code" – the 50-90% of unused software components that create unnecessary security risks. The companys approach enables organizations to spend more time building products rather than maintaining and updating dormant code, ultimately strengthening security posture while improving operational efficiency.

Our technology enables “things to do” companies to easily connect with third parties that resell their tickets and power some of the world’s most iconic tourist attractions through the distribution of rates, inventory, and bookings with gate-readable barcodes. Because our technology sits centrally between experiences companies and resellers, we work with some of the newest and most exciting technologies to enable the high volume of transactions that flow through our system. Connecting with Redeam decreases operational overhead while increasing sales and improving the customer experience.

We spend time and energy cultivating a network of serial entrepreneurs, because they are the source of Boulder Ventures investment ideas. Our serial entrepreneurs are subject matter experts. They consistently hatch market-leading ideas in information technology and life sciences that develop into market-leading companies in software, networking, data storage, drug discovery and tools, and technology enabled services. Our model is to be the first professional investor in our portfolio companies, and to reserve capital to participate in multiple investment rounds.
