Our Vision

We are here to help you achieve your vision.

“Monta Vista was extremely proactive during our initial funding round and was consistently supportive after the funding was secured. They have a tremendous network for entrepreneurs to leverage and made connections for us in both the financial and broader eco-systems. Throughout everything, Venk and the team have always been accessible.”

What We Do

We help founders sidestep the challenges that hold them back. The formula is different for every portfolio company: whether making key hires, getting customers, operations, marketing, or leadership, we have helped navigate the common threats to a business’ success more times than we can count.

“Investors can play a very critical role in the growth of the company, and the particular combination of constructive feedback and genuine desire to help makes Monta Vista a very powerful ally of the entrepreneur.”

Resources

Beyond capital, our five partners bring together a vast network of resources and connections to help entrepreneurs succeed.

“Monta Vista has made connections to potential customers, investors, partners and helped me put together a business-saving COVID plan as well as provided opportunities to connect with other entrepreneurs and thought leaders. Seriously—if you are wondering if you should work with them, message me.”
