Rooted Partners is a pre-seed and seed-stage venture capital fund dedicated to backing startups founded by immigrants. The firm believes that immigrant founders possess unique resilience, a global perspective, and a strong drive, which positions them to build massive, globally-impactful companies. Originating as an angel group in 2017, Rooted Partners launched its first formal fund in 2021 to provide early-stage capital and support to what they identify as an overlooked and high-potential segment of the startup ecosystem.
