412 Venture Fund

412 Venture Fund is a venture capital firm based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, investing in early-stage technology and technology-enabled companies across the United States. Its typical target is a company with a product already in the market and positioned to expand its customer base - a stage conventionally described as post-launch, pre-scale.

The fund participates in convertible-security or equity rounds and can lead, co-lead or follow. Sector interests span autonomy, robotics, artificial intelligence, fintech, advanced materials, sensors, cybersecurity and healthcare IT - a list that reflects Pittsburgh's established strengths in robotics, autonomy and applied AI research.

Investment is paired with operating support: introductions to customers, help identifying experts and key hires, and guidance on business milestones and exit planning. The team is composed of entrepreneurs and operators who have built and grown companies themselves.

Investment criteria favour companies with a connection to Pittsburgh or a clear benefit from access to the region and its network, alongside the firm's national geographic scope. Further detail is available at www.412venturefund.com.
