Expert Team Fueling Startups

At Good News Ventures, we are founders first, investors second. Having built and exited multiple successful companies, we understand the challenges of launching, scaling, and fundraising firsthand. We’ve been in your shoes - navigating uncertainty, securing capital, and pushing through the toughest moments. In this day and age, capital is a commodity. That’s why we don’t just invest; we partner with founders to provide strategic insights, operational guidance, and an extensive network to help them succeed.

Serial Entrepreneurs Turned Investors

We believe that capital is just the beginning. Our Next Level Program is designed to help portfolio companies overcome roadblocks and scale faster. We work side by side with founders, leveraging our expertise and industry connections to tackle key business challenges. From refining go-to-market strategies to securing follow-on funding, we provide actionable guidance and hands-on support to help startups reach their next stage of growth.
