Their Thesis

At the firm level, Groove Capital connects Minnesota's early-stage founders and investors, providing capital and a network to help ambitious companies scale.

How to Pitch Them

Use Groove Capital's official contact or application channel. Lead with fit to Pre-seed and Seed, explain why the company matches Technology startups in Minnesota and the Upper Midwest, and support claims with traction and a concise use-of-capital plan.

What Excites Them

Groove Capital's published criteria emphasize high-potential early-stage founders building globally ambitious companies from Minnesota. This is firm-level context, not an unsupported personal attribution.

What They Pass On

No person-specific exclusions were published. At the firm level, companies outside its early-stage regional ecosystem focus are unlikely to fit.
