When Betsy Fore was five, her grandmother gifted her a Velveteen Rabbit, inspiring her to launch Velveteen Ventures. The firm aims to invest $500,000 to $4 million in seed and Series A companies in healthcare, climate, consumer, and community sectors. Fore aims to support Native American founders and incorporate purpose-driven initiatives. Karla Brollier and Katherine Stabler join Velveteen Ventures. Profit and purpose are key values for this fund.
