Cortado Ventures is a venture capital firm that’s working to define the Midcontinent’s success story for generations to come. We go beyond raising capital to support businesses – our team’s deep experience as leaders and innovators helps our portfolio companies accelerate their growth through strategic planning, training, and guidance.
Founded by a team of seasoned CEOs and industry veterans in 2020, Cortado Ventures focuses its efforts on entrepreneurs and startups who are founder-led by people with innovative, disruptive, and business-to-business ideas in the insurtech, biotech, aerospace, fintech, energy tech, or ag tech sectors that are a natural fit for the mid-continent region.
We exist to build a legacy of great technology companies that will add to Oklahoma’s economic renaissance. Our edge is sourcing proprietary opportunities through our robust network and investing in overlooked and underfunded tech sectors where we have operating experience. We believe in investing in smart and ambitious entrepreneurs who leverage technology to scale quickly. We target specific industries based on the Midcontinent's historical and emerging strengths, including energy tech, logistics, life sciences and future of work.
Cortado Ventures is ideally positioned to help entrepreneurs create shared wins. Our greatest strength is our seasoned CEO leadership with each member of the General Partner having successfully led innovative companies through transformation.
