FIRST PRINCIPLES

HopeCity

Venture Fund

The First Principle HopeCity Venture Fund is a pioneering initiative that amplifies historically underrepresented founders in urban areas where HopeCity operates by making direct investments and hands-on support. In doing so, we're channeling essential capital to these brilliant minds, unlocking many untapped investment avenues. 

Our commitment to inclusive investing goes beyond mere capital allocation: we believe in the immense potential that diversity brings to innovation. Leveraging our extensive network, we're poised to offer these founders a wealth of resources, insights, and connections, many of which had been inaccessible before. 

With a deeply hands-on partnership approach, underpinned by our entrepreneurial experiences, we intimately understand the nuances and challenges of nurturing and expanding businesses. 

Our overarching mission is clear: to bridge the substantial resource and capital divide that underrepresented founders face, creating a vibrant ecosystem where inclusivity fuels groundbreaking innovation.
