Frequently asked questions
Who makes the investment decisions at StoryHouse Ventures?
General Partner Miles Bird runs the investment process. His background includes early investments in over 50 companies such as Xos Trucks, Alloy, and Gabi before founding StoryHouse, per the firm's website.
What is the relationship between StoryHouse Ventures and the Claremont Colleges?
StoryHouse is an independent venture firm, not formally affiliated with the colleges. It invests exclusively in startups where at least one founder attended a Claremont College — Pomona, Claremont McKenna, Harvey Mudd, Scripps, Pitzer, Claremont Graduate University, or Keck Graduate Institute.
Does StoryHouse lead rounds or function mainly as a co-investor?
The firm's public positioning and listed syndicate partners — which include a16z, Felicis, Floodgate, and Founder Collective — indicate it typically co-invests rather than leading rounds. It does not market itself as a lead investor on its portfolio page.
What investment stages does StoryHouse Ventures target?
StoryHouse focuses on early-stage companies, typically seed or pre-seed rounds. Its portfolio spans sectors including AI, climate, digital health, fintech, insurtech, and space technology.
How does StoryHouse Ventures source its deals?
Deal flow originates almost entirely from the Claremont Colleges alumni network. The firm reinforces this by maintaining a Claremont-specific job board, publishing a bi-weekly community newsletter, and issuing quarterly fund updates designed to keep the alumni ecosystem engaged.
Is StoryHouse Ventures currently deploying its first fund?
Yes. The firm's website describes its active vehicle as 'StoryHouse Fund I' and frames its monthly investor updates as a front-row seat to a founding GP's deployment journey.
Does StoryHouse Ventures manage philanthropic structures or a foundation alongside the fund?
No philanthropic foundation or donor-advised fund is disclosed in connection with StoryHouse. The firm's community-building tools — its job board and newsletters — are presented as ecosystem infrastructure for the venture portfolio, not as charitable activity.
