Knoll Ventures

Founded in 2018 and based in Atlanta, GA, Knoll Ventures invests in Pre-Series A tech enabled B2B companies. In Spring 2022, we closed our second fund to support founders at the earliest stages of the growth process where we help drive value creation and increase the odds of success. Our‍ approach We lead or co-lead $500,000 to $3,000,000 investment rounds in B2B technology-enabled companies at the pre-seed, seed, and post-seed stages. We understand that no two early-stage companies take the same path from Point A to Point B, and we're adept at helping founders navigate their way. We look for passionate founders who see around corners, intimately understand customer pain points, and articulate a future vision that feels all but inevitable. Stage Expertise: By focusing on Pre-Series A companies, we've developed a unique perspective on the challenges encountered by founders at this stage. Whether starting a business or facing what feels like an insurmountable obstacle, we aspire to be the first call a founder makes when looking for actionable advice. Alignment: We align ourselves with founders through our deep knowledge of round objectives and a scalable investment structure, creating a dynamic where we win only if the founders win. Network: We make the right introductions at the right time knowing that meaningful connections during this critical stage in the growth process can dramatically improve a company's trajectory. Our impact Our commitment extends far beyond the dollars invested. We take a long-term perspective when partnering with founders to identify ways to add value beyond just writing a check.
