Florida's Most Connected Venture Capital Firm

Over 100 founders backed with $300M.
About

Florida Funders invests in early-stage B2B tech companies and backs founders with more than capital.

We're a venture capital firm with a network of 2,000+ accredited investors, and we operate as committed partners to the founders we fund. Our model is built around three things that most firms don't offer: a structured network that opens doors, a media-driven distribution engine that amplifies portfolio companies to customers, talent, and follow-on investors, and a community of founders and investors built for relationship-building and connection. 

Rooted in Florida's thriving tech market, we invest in pre-seed through Series B technology companies led by standout founders across the U.S.

Approach
We get involved early and leverage our network, community, and built-in growth engine.

We are founders ourselves. We bring hands-on operational experience, a platform that actively works to grow the companies we back, and a network that creates high-value introductions.

Stages
Pre-seed to Series B

We invest in the pre-seed and seed stages, partnering with founders who are building momentum, and we follow on through Series B as companies scale.

 Geography
Anywhere in the US

We invest nationally wherever standout founders are building, with deep knowledge of major markets and the relationships that come with it.
