WHO WE ARE

We are a secondary and primary venture capital firm that empowers founders and employees to take the bold risks that they dreamed of when they first started pursuing their startup dreams.

WHY WE DO IT

Private markets are evolving. Founders now spend a decade building companies before an exit. During that time, life happens, families grow, homes are bought, and financial flexibility becomes vital. WBC was created to provide liquidity during these moments, without forcing founders to choose between growth and personal stability.

WHERE WE DO IT

We specialize in industries that define the future, including artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, DevOps, enterprise software, front office software, FinTech, HealthTech, and vertical software. These aren't just markets — they're opportunities to back solutions to improve lives, now and in the future.

Our Mission

By blending secondary liquidity with primary investments, we empower founders and employees to take the bold risks that they dreamed of when they first got into the startup world. With a little liquidity, they can scale with confidence — freeing them to focus on impact, not just exits.

Secondary Investments

Early stakeholders hold a large, concentrated, illiquid, and volatile asset. A secondary transaction provides liquidity and aligns stakeholder interests as the company scales. Diversification frees them to take necessary risks — freeing them to focus on value creation without the distraction of scraping by at home.

Primary Investments

Primary investing is where we align with ambitious founders to turn their visions into reality. Our primary investments empower founders to scale their businesses, refine their products, and expand into new markets. We provide the fuel to build the business so that operators can better navigate the challenges of rapid growth.
