On Grid Ventures supports the startup and success of B2B and consumer businesses which leverage connectivity technologies to disrupt and improve clearly defined markets.

We look for early stage companies which capitalize on two or more of these five advances in computing and connectivity:

  1. Location-based products, services, and infrastructure; such as Uber, Yelp, TireAgent, or Foursquare
  2. AI/Machine Learning, particularly when built from large, location-infused data-sets
  3. Marketplaces and e-commerce
  4. Peer-to-peer networks and network effects, crowd-sourcing
  5. IoT connectivity across devices, places, people, and time

HBS Alumni Angels of Greater New York is the largest angel group in NY with 350+ angel investors and growing. Our members have invested $20 million across 100+ exciting early stage companies.

Our members have extensive experience across industries and like to help strong entrepreneurs succeed.  Many have been successful entrepreneurs themselves.  We assign an experienced mentor to each company in which we invest.
