Our Core Values

Our vision is to enable and align worthwhile intentions with ambitious growth. Our mission -- be the place to build for exceptional entrepreneurs in NYC. Our values drive our culture as a team and a community:

• Empathetic Excellence. Excellence is the moment where consistent execution meets a worthy task. We aspire to meet this moment daily, while acknowledging our role is always to meet all of our companies where they are, excellent themselves or not, and give them the support they need.
• Good Humored Earnestness. We are unapologetically seeking to influence how venture works at the earliest stages towards a better, fairer, more thoughtful outcome as we see it. We'll get where we're going with data, goodwill, and good humor, not browbeating.
• Care. A Lot. We will be good to one another and to the people we work with. We will take the time to ask people who they are and how they are. When external circumstances call for it, we will pause and check on ourselves, our community, and comment as necessary and appropriate to show solidarity in the moments that matter.
• Pioneering Spirit. We are a small team with a huge opportunity in front of us. We will get there by each member of the team adopting and retaining a spirit of ambition, adaptability and grit.
• Inviting. As a hospitality-oriented organization we should be welcoming to our companies and guests, no matter their orientation, at all times. But we should actually go further. We should be inviting; deliberately seeking to craft in our company the spectrum of diversity emblematic of NYC.

Equal Opportunity Company Ventures is working to change the culture of tech for a more equitable and sustainable future.

We're most definitely an equal opportunity employer.
