About Connectivity Ventures Fund
Having collectively spent decades in the investment banking and recruiting industries, the principals of CCP have developed a unique network that has proven vital to the success of many entrepreneurs. They are repeatedly told that their relationships are a true differentiator.In an effort to follow in the footsteps of their favoriteinnovator/entrepreneur Benjamin Franklin, they at CCP also strive to “do well by doing good.” This means that they prioritize working with clients whose goals go beyond commercial means, and tackle big societal issues such as those that encourage biotechnology innovation, entrepreneurship, and the advancement of women as a demographic.Beyond focusing on themes such as these, they apply a highly disciplined selection process that ensures they only work with a small number of teams at any one time. This allows us to apply laser-focus to each one’s needs which translates into a higher potential for success.
