transforming legacy industries and tech stacks.

Ripple is your first and most committed partner.

Earliest backers of the best founders.

We believe in working with the best founders with unique insight and advantage in the markets they are looking to build in. We are the first institutional investors in most of our companies. When we say early, we mean early. Most of our investments are pre-revenue and pre-product at entry! Our commitment to founders is that we will be one of the most involved and helpful investors on the cap table.

Focused on software transforming legacy industries, workflows and tech stacks.

We are excited by very large problems in legacy industries that have manual workflows, large amounts of offline data, and archaic technology stacks that aren't yet ready for AI.  

Investing in Canada and the United States.

HOW WE'RE DIFFERENT

Changing the Arc of Success for Founders

01

The Ripple Effect

We have a deep network of founders, operators and investors through our platform initiatives (RippleX, Tank Talks, Venture Partners) that serve as a community of help to accelerate companies. This enables founders to share and receive impactful advice from others who have been in similar shoes, and get highly relevant introductions to customers and investors.

Your First Call

We aim to be the first call founders make whether it be good or bad. From navigating tough situations like losing your largest customer or celebrating wins like closing a new financing round, we want to be there by your side. We are long-term thinkers and understand with empathy the nature of building companies from idea to exit.

Corporate Development

We have relationships with enterprises across legacy industries (real estate, manufacturing, healthcare) and the top technology platforms in the world to help with customer introductions, channel partnerships, investment and M&A. Our corporate development network enables partnerships that otherwise would be hard to obtain for early-stage founders.
