Frequently asked questions
How does Wischoff Ventures source its deals?
The firm sources heavily through founder networks that Nichole Wischoff built as an operator at high-growth companies with national footprints, including Lyft's city-launch teams. Its geographic base in Nashville gives it direct visibility into Southeastern and Midwestern startup ecosystems that are less saturated with seed-stage capital. Wischoff Ventures also participates in syndicates with other seed funds, but its core inbound flow comes from technical founders who know Wischoff from her operating career.
Which sectors does Wischoff Ventures explicitly avoid?
The firm does not publish an explicit exclusions list, but Nichole Wischoff's investment focus reflects her operator background — she concentrates on enterprise SaaS, fintech infrastructure, AI/ML, industrial technology, and mobility. Pure consumer social, life sciences, and therapeutics are notably absent from the portfolio and stated areas of focus, and the firm's thesis is built around real-economy technology rather than speculative web3 or ad-supported consumer plays.
