Beanstalk Ventures is a VC fund in Hartsdale focused on E-Commerce and Software. Beanstalk is an early stage venture fund with deep ties into both the retail and technology worlds because they were entrepreneurs and retail executives before they were investors. Because of that they are comfortable investing at the "napkin" stage and rolling up our “shirt sleeves” to help the portfolio’s founders. They look topartner with the next generation of retail tech entrepreneurs and aim to help them successfully design and build the product, recruit teams, raise the right capital, close sales and build effective marketing programs. They are exclusively focused on retail technology, are the first investor in each portfolio company and they much prefer to lead the round.
