Benhamou Global Ventures
Menlo Park, CA
Series A
0No verified founder data yet
BERNIE'S TAKE

BGV is the real deal for technical B2B founders who want investors who actually understand the product. Eric Benhamou doesn't mess around - he'll dig deep into your architecture and ask the hard technical questions that other VCs can't. The fund punches above its weight with portfolio company support, especially for international expansion through Anousheh's networks. But don't expect warm and fuzzy - they're direct, expect execution, and won't coddle you if you're missing targets. Great for founders who prefer substance over style and want investors who can actually help with technical and go-to-market strategy.

Celtic House Venture Partners
Ottawa, ON
Series A
0No verified founder data yet
BERNIE'S TAKE

Celtic House is the grown-up in the room of Canadian VC. They've been around since the 90s and actually know how to build companies, not just write checks. The Shopify early investment gives them serious street cred, but don't expect flashy marketing or Silicon Valley-style hype. They're operationally-focused former executives who will roll up their sleeves and help you figure out go-to-market strategy. The downside? They can be conservative and slow-moving compared to US funds, and their network skews heavily Canadian. If you're building boring enterprise software that makes money, they're gold. If you're building the next consumer social app, look elsewhere.

CerraCap Impact Venture Capital
Costa Mesa, CA
Series A
0No verified founder data yet
BERNIE'S TAKE

CerraCap is flying under the radar, which could be good or concerning depending on what you're looking for. The lack of public portfolio bragging and partner spotlights suggests they're either very early stage themselves, intentionally discrete, or not playing the typical VC marketing game. For impact founders, this could mean more genuine mission alignment and less performative impact theater. However, the limited transparency makes it harder to gauge their actual value-add beyond capital. If you're meeting with them, dig deep on their operational support and network - the proof will be in the specifics, not the marketing materials.

Decibel Partners
Palo Alto, CA
Series A
0No verified founder data yet
BERNIE'S TAKE

Decibel is a solid, no-nonsense B2B fund that actually knows what they're talking about in enterprise software. The partners have real operating experience and don't just throw around buzzwords. They're particularly strong in helping technical founders figure out go-to-market, which is rare. The downside is they're not huge brand names, so you won't get the same signaling value as a top-tier fund. But if you're building in their wheelhouse and want investors who roll up their sleeves, they're worth taking seriously.

EPIC Ventures
Salt Lake City, UT
Series A
0No verified founder data yet
BERNIE'S TAKE

EPIC is Utah's OG venture shop with serious street cred - 1 unicorn, 6 IPOs and 47 acquisitions including key companies like Ancestry, Recursion Pharmaceuticals and Genpact since 1994. What sets them apart is their deep operational chops and genuine founder-first mentality. EPIC Managing Directors Kent Madsen and Nick Efstratis have both been with the firm for over 20 years. Kent, formerly the CEO of a publicly traded NASDAQ Company, has been directly involved in 6 IPO's and dozens of acquisitions. They're not just check-writers - they roll up their sleeves and actually help build companies. We are very active investors and seek board of directors representation in each of our investments. The Zions Bank backing gives them unique staying power and banking relationships that most VCs can't match. Fair warning though: they're thorough in due diligence and expect serious commitment from founders.

ForgePoint Capital
San Mateo, CA
Series A
0No verified founder data yet
BERNIE'S TAKE

ForgePoint is the real deal - they're not just another generalist fund dabbling in cybersecurity. "We view ourselves as company builders, not necessarily just picking stocks, and that's what drives our mission," Yepez said. "People look for that ability to not only invest, but help grow the company, help exit the company, and bring the corporate governance to do that." 79 companies, 3 unicorns (Cyberhaven, Huntress, Interos), 2 IPOs (Cloudflare, Fortinet), 36 acquisitions. Their advisory council isn't window dressing - it's nearly 100 industry leaders including CISOs and government security leaders who actually help with deal flow and customer intros. What founders love: they move fast on decisions, have deep sector expertise, and their portfolio companies actually get meaningful value beyond just capital. The catch? They're picky - they know cybersecurity inside and out, so you can't BS your way through a meeting with generic enterprise software talking points.

FUSE
Bellevue, WA
Series A
0No verified founder data yet
BERNIE'S TAKE

FUSE is the rare young fund that's actually earned its swagger through execution, not just pedigree. All three founding partners are under 35 and founders consistently say they "feel more as part of the team, as opposed to benefactors from on-high." Their network-effects model gets stronger with every investment and LP they add, and having most LPs within 20 minutes of their office means real operational help, not just check-writing. The Microsoft/Amazon executive LP base isn't just for show - portfolio CEOs like Samir Bodas at Icertis call them "relentless and hyper focused on winning." They're hyper-local to Pacific Northwest but that's a feature, not a bug - they know everyone and everything happening in Seattle tech.
