Fortify Ventures

Fortify Ventures is an early-stage fund investing in technology that improves human performance. They back founders building products that help people feel better, function better, and perform better. They invest post-product but pre-product-market fit, typically at pre-seed or seed, and write first checks of $100K to $2M. They focus on human health and wellness rather than biotech, pharma, or medical devices.

Frequently asked questions

What is Fortify's investment thesis?

Fortify invests in technology that measurably improves human performance — helping people feel better, function better, and perform better. The firm targets early-stage companies building consumer-centric products anchored in real-world behavior, with a preference for hardware-enabled experiences where software amplifies the physical product. It explicitly avoids biotech, pharma, medical devices, and enterprise clinical workflow tools.

Does Fortify Ventures lead rounds or co-invest?

Fortify is comfortable leading rounds but does not require it. The firm prioritizes the quality of the company and its ability to be an effective partner. It targets a 7% ownership stake with its initial check and will only invest when there is enough capital committed to act as a clear catalyst for growth, avoiding rolling rounds that lack a defined milestone.

Can a company outside of pure human health receive funding from Fortify?

Fortify's mandate is exclusively focused on human health and performance technology. It will only invest in products used by people that drive real improvements in health or performance, whether that is direct-to-consumer, B2B benefiting employees, or a marketplace. Enterprise infrastructure, clinical workflow tools, biotech, pharma, and medical devices are all explicitly outside the firm's investment scope.

How should potential limited partners contact Fortify Ventures?
