Venture Capital and Private Equity Principals

The Venture Game shouldn't be the only game in town. We invest in companies playing The Sovereignty Game.

About us

Visionary Ventures represents a small group of people who are investing in and growing companies oriented around ownership and value generation. We offer an approach to founding teams, at the earliest stages of their company's development, who want an alternative to traditional venture capital led growth. Instead of indexing a business' potential value against exits and IPOs, we partner with founding teams that are seeking capital to underwrite a business' eventual profitability. Our north star is to help accelerate a founding team's ability to exit the venture games, not exit their companies. www.visionary.vc

    Visionary Ventures just invested $50,000 in X in a Box led by Elyse Klaidman and Tony DeRose to turn the Pixar creative process into an interactive learning experience for students eager to develop 21st century skills like coding and design. It's basically "Pixar in a Box" at Khan Academy scale. And guess what? They're playing The Sovereignty Game. In other words, they're a capital-efficient tech-enabled services company, growing revenues and profitability fast, with a long time horizon.
