Backing Wisconsin's Earliest Venture-Scale Founders
We partner with founders who see something others don't. From first institutional capital through future rounds, we back ambitious teams transforming insight into opportunity.
Investing In Founders Before Consensus
The best companies are often built long before the rest of the market recognizes the opportunity. We believe exceptional founders develop insights through experience, identify opportunities others overlook, and create value by acting before consensus forms.
Mastercraft Ventures invests in Wisconsin-based founders at the earliest stages their company. We aim to invest in a company’s first round of funding. We typically invest $500k in pre-revenue and prototype-stage companies and reserve meaningful follow-on capital as portfolio companies grow.
