Nueva Ventures is a new genre of venture capital firms taking a "micro-cap" approach. We are able to meet the needs of entrepreneurs who choose to leverage today's technologies and adopt efficient go to market strategies to launch and prove out their businesses with far less capital. We seek to invest in startups needing $500k - $1.5 million as a first venture capital Seed or Series A round and we generally look for opportunities that are within the Internet, software and mobile sectors. Our belief is that proving out the model with less capital reduces risks, improves the prospects of raising follow on capital on better terms and preserves exit options for the entrepreneur and investor. Our mantra is to:

• Keep burn low by creatively using resources
• Release early, release often
• Prove out the model, then ramp
• Maintain flexible exit options

As veterans of the technology sector and entrepreneurs, we have sat in your shoes and we know that building a successful business is one of the most challenging and emotional things you can do. Having the right experienced investors as part of your team and a capital structure that does not encumber you can make all the difference.
