Venture Capital Jobs and Internships at Purpose Built
Purpose Built venture studio brings together pre-idea entrepreneurs, capital, coaching, and resources to turn the best ideas into great companies focused on fintech, upskilling, and the future of work.
A new type of co-founder, and a more valuable investor.
Build With Experts: Every venture is co-founded alongside serial entrepreneurs who have taken companies from 0 to IPO and raised $250M+, and a collective of world-class engineers, designers, and more.
Double Your Success: Our performance coaches, startup building playbooks, investor network and capital help us strive to build ventures at twice the speed and half the risk.
Stay Focused: Our team and startup building process enables founders to focus on building a great product while we help take care of fundraising, accounting, engineering, legal, and more.
We believe that the best way to unlock this potential is to:
Invest in world-class entrepreneurs. Help them reach their full human potential through extensive coaching and operational playbooks.
Build and invest in companies that help millions of people reach for greater economic opportunity.
Why Build With Us?
Speed: Skip the 18 months of self-funding with pre-vetted ideas and an EIR stipend.
Support: Launch your MVP with studio resources and support.
Capital: We’ll invest $250-500K of seed funding.
Reduced Risk: Double your success rate and cut your time in half with our ops playbooks, talent and advisory network, and executive coaching.
Our Process
Ideate: We generate and source hundreds of business ideas through our venture partner network, and select the few with potential to become $10B businesses that advance human potential.
Explore: We work with entrepreneurs to explore high-potential businesses that fit their expertise; “getting out of the building” with customer development, interviews and prototypes.
Validate: We provide entrepreneurs with a stipend to run an MVP to de-risk the business, build the product, acquire early customers, and prepare for launch. The entrepreneur stipend unlocks founding talent that couldn’t otherwise afford 18 months without a paycheck.
Launch: We invest $250-500k in each venture, and setup the books, legal, and HR. Founders typically own >50% equity stake, depending on their founding team and investment amount – skipping straight to growing their business, without the early funding slog.
Grow: We provide ongoing founder coaching, operational playbooks, recruiting and fundraising support to help founders grow their own skills as they grow their companies.
What To Expect
For 3-9 months, you’ll be working directly with our general partners, talent collective, and coaches to co-found a company.
If we mutually find an idea we’re all excited about, we will invest up to $500k with the potential for substantially more when company milestones are met.
