OUR FOCUS
SECTORS.
Bull City Venture Partners is primarily an investor in B2B software businesses. The BCVP portfolio is fairly diversified, with clusters in cloud computing, DevOps, ecommerce, fintech and healthtech. That said, we don’t back companies or even ideas- we back people. People who are uniquely qualified to build solutions for the world’s most acute problems. If you’re building something bold, we want to hear from you.
GEOGRAPHY.
We are proudly headquartered in Durham, NC which was affectionately nicknamed the Bull City in the 1800s. The location of our homebase empowers panoptic coverage of the east coast where the majority of our investment activity takes place.
STAGe.
We lead Pre-Seed, Seed, and Series A financings and are often times the first institutional investor. On occasion, and when the opportunity is exceptional, we will invest in growth-stage businesses.
HOW WE’RE DIFFERENT
A TRUE TEAM APPROACH.
With over 20 years of investing together, our partners operate as a tight-knit team, leveraging deep relationships and collective experience to support founders. We don’t just invest capital—we invest time, energy, and expertise to help you scale.
RELENTLESS HUSTLE.
We work as hard as the entrepreneurs we back. Whether it’s securing key hires, forging strategic partnerships, or connecting founders with follow-on investors, we are hands-on, proactive, and committed. We’re available when you need us—late nights, weekends, and beyond.
FOCUSED PORTFOLIO, MEANINGFUL SUPPORT.
Unlike firms that spread themselves thin, we maintain one of the best partner-to-company ratios in venture. This ensures deep engagement, tailored support, and aligned incentives. Your success is our success.
HUMILITY AND OPENNESS.
We know that without founders, we don’t exist. We approach each investment with curiosity and respect, always eager to learn and evolve. Our open-door policy means we welcome conversations with entrepreneurs from all backgrounds.
If you’re building something extraordinary, let’s talk.
