You should come to Capital Factory to: Hone your skills at meetups and hackathons Find your co-founder Build a Minimum Viable Product Meet your first angel investors and VCs Find lighthouse customers Keep your costs low Grow your team Quit your job and become an entrepreneur The Capital Factory team is proud to announce that in 2017 we officially became a Certified B Corporation®. This was no easy task. Capital Factory was measured against the “highest standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability.” According to the nonprofit, B Labs, we met those standards and were thus invited to join the movement. Think of it as a Fair Trade certification for the business as a whole, and not just for the coffee. We’re overjoyed about this and encourage others to join us in leading the movement to use our businesses as a force for good™.

At Unicap Partners, we carefully examine and analyze each step that a start-up takes to succeed. However, not all start-ups are able to reach that goal. Even well-funded start-ups can struggle to grow, and initial traction may not be sustained long enough. This is where we aim to make a difference. We Are The Ecosystem For the Start-Up To Grow. We Assist You To Reach Agreed Milestones. Whether you receive investment from us or not, we provide mentoring to help you raise funds easily. Our primary focus is on investing in start-ups at the Pre-Seed, Seed, and Pre-Series A stages. However, we believe that providing support and guidance to our portfolio companies is just as important as providing funding. Our team is committed to helping you at every stage of your journey - from reaching the Minimum Viable Product (MVP) stage to defining your target market, creating an effective marketing strategy (online and offline), and raising subsequent rounds of funding, among other things.
