Today we completed our first AGM. It is hard to describe how great it felt to show our LPs and constituents what we have done with Black Ops over the past three years.?#AGMseason?#LPsummit #BlackFounders #OverSubscribed We have backed 14 founders so far, leading seed rounds and guiding these great individuals to the growth stage. 2025 is going to be a big year for founders. It has been a journey and there have been so many people behind us it's hard to shout them all out but we will try. Thanks for putting us in business and believing in what we could build...

Morgan Northwestern Mutual University of Michigan [GO BLUE] And to everyone else who did anything to get us in motion.

The first seed fund built by Black founders to invest in Black founders
关于我们
Black Operator Ventures (Black Ops), founded in 2021, is the first venture capital fund of its kind, managed and led by an all-Black team of founders. Black Ops leads seed-stage investments in Black-led tech companies and may also co-invest in Series A rounds or at the pre-seed stage. Black Ops looks for founders who are resilient, have unique perspective on their market and possess the conviction to win their space. Managed by partners with operator experience, vast networks, and the skills necessary to help scale companies, the fund provides more than capital. Black Ops provides a roadmap to success for Black founders, and aims to create the most billion-dollar valued companies ever founded by Black people.

Though it was a couple weeks back, still remembering the amazing conversations we had at #BlackTechWeek2024 during our first Horizon Dinner. We dove into how the future looks with #AI, how this technology can further close the gap for #BlackFounders and much more.
