Outbound Ventures

Outbound Ventures is a venture capital firm focused on investing in early-stage and growth-stage companies across consumer, technology, and financial services sectors. The firm's investment thesis centers on backing extraordinary management teams — specifically action-focused founders with deep personal conviction and firsthand experience with the problems they are solving. Outbound Ventures targets companies that address large, scalable addressable markets and operate with clear, efficient distribution models, as well as those offering transformational value propositions with defined paths to revenue and strong customer feedback loops. The firm places particular emphasis on open and constant dialogue between portfolio companies and their end customers as a key indicator of long-term success. Outbound Ventures has assembled a diverse portfolio spanning multiple verticals including consumer packaged goods, fintech, proptech, health and wellness, cannabis, food and beverage, education, and Latin American technology markets. Notable CPG and food and beverage investments include Better Booch, a premium small-craft kombucha brand; Sanzo, a sparkling water line featuring Asian-inspired flavors with zero added sugar; Cann, a THC-infused social tonic; Spero Foods, a producer of plant-based cheese and egg substitutes; and Junzi Kitchen, a fast-casual Chinese food concept. The firm also backs companies at the intersection of consumer lifestyle and wellness, including Maude, Fleur Marche, and Island. Beyond CPG, Outbound Ventures has a strong presence in Latin American markets through portfolio companies such as Worky, Siglo, Flat, Treinta, Laika, Fitco, Yema, Parrot, Nexu, Ayenda Rooms, Voyhoy, and Butter, reflecting a strategic commitment to emerging market consumer and technology opportunities. Fintech and financial services investments include Fortú, Sable, Bespoke Financial, and Fractional. The firm also backs SaaS, education, and media companies including Lambda School, Prescient AI, Indie Boost, Rebelmail (acquired by Salesforce), and Jumpcut. Outbound Ventures positions itself as a generational investor — one that understands the values, behaviors, and consumption patterns of younger consumer segments and aligns its portfolio accordingly.
