Blu Venture Investors is a venture capital investment company that supports early stage entrepreneurs in the Mid-Atlantic Region – Maryland, Virginia, Washington, DC and North Carolina. We typically invest $500K to $1.0M in a single round. When larger financing rounds are needed, we actively look to syndicate deals with other investment groups in our network. Our goal is an accelerated, successful exit, for both company founders and investors alike. Our investors are experienced, successful operating executives with experience in a broad range of industries and business models. Each of our investors has successfully launched new companies, products or services. The Blu Ventures Affiliate Program is a “by invitation only” group of accredited investors. These investors are provided Blu due diligence materials and quarterly/annual reporting of our portfolio companies. They invest alongside the Blu principals and benefit from our close engagement with our portfolio companies. Affiliates have the opportunity to invest via an opt-in model which mirrors those deals in which Blu members have already agreed to invest. This unique arrangement affords the affiliate members exposure to deal flow they would not see, substantive due diligence, and institutional-quality documentation and governance—all without the time commitment. Twice per year, we invite the affiliates for a Blu meeting and reception to network with principals and one another.
