Connect Ventures is founded on the idea that great companies are built by connecting the right founders with the right platforms, people, and pathways to scale. And by helping those companies earn a durable place in daily life. We invest in prosumer and consumer AI companies in categories where connection isn’t a nice-to-have, it’s the strategy. We have partnered with the leading entertainment and sports agency Creative Artists Agency (CAA) to connect and plug founders directly into CAA’s ecosystem of 1,000+ agents, talent, media, IP, partnerships, and sponsorships. Things traditional venture networks simply can’t unlock. We seek to help companies accelerate and achieve breakout velocity.
