​About Us

A Midwest Firm with Global Reach!

Qoco Ventures (pronounced “Co-Co”) is not just building companies—we’re building a movement. Rooted in integrity, powered by service, and committed to excellence, we invest in people and ideas that are ready to reshape the future. With creativity and authenticity at our core, we help founders and emerging venture capitalists thrive.

In partnership with Venture University, QoCo Ventures is a global venture capital force driving innovation across four continents. We analyze over 20,000 deals annually to back the most disruptive, high-impact startups. Powered by a network of 4,000+ investors, LPs, and industry leaders, we move with unmatched insight, influence, and execution to invest in the most disruptive founders.


Our Services

We’re a business consultancy that helps founders turn ideas into real, user-driven ventures. Even if all you have is an idea, we’ll help you define your market, build a solid business model, and prepare to raise capital with confidence.

Some communities remain severely underrepresented in venture capital. We're changing that with our Venture Capital Education Services.  Our upcoming HBCU Venture Investor Accelerator is designed for HBCU students, faculty, alumni, and others.   This program uses the cohort model to blend theory with hands-on, immersive experiences. Cohort members work alongside seasoned VC professionals, evaluate real deals, invest capital, and share in the returns when companies succeed. This is more than education—it’s access, ownership, and impact.

Even if you’re not a member of one of our cohorts, you can still be part of our growing Ecosystem — by investing in our committed fund or joining our Investor Syndicate to invest in individual deals. With a minimal amount, you can invest in one or more high-potential startups — and help power an inclusive innovation network with unlimited upside.

Our Core Values









































Integrity

Integrity is at the heart of everything we do. We believe in doing what’s just—always. Our commitment to honesty, transparency, and ethical practices guides our decisions, builds trust with our clients and partners, and creates a culture where accountability and respect thrive. Integrity isn’t just a value; it’s our standard.

Service

Service is more than a promise—it’s our purpose. We are dedicated to exceeding expectations by putting the needs of our clients, partners, and communities first. With a spirit of humility and a commitment to excellence, we approach every interaction with care, responsiveness, and a drive to make a positive impact. Service is how we lead, support, and grow—together.

Excellence

Excellence is our benchmark. We strive to deliver the highest quality in everything we do—from the smallest task to the biggest challenge. Our team is driven by a passion for continuous improvement, innovation, and pushing beyond the status quo. Excellence isn’t just about results—it’s about how we get there, with discipline, dedication, and a relentless pursuit of our best. 

Creativity

Creativity is at the core of everything we do at QoCo Ventures.  It's our essence. We believe the boldest ideas—and the most transformative solutions—emerge when imagination meets execution. Whether we’re evaluating startups, advising founders, or designing new paths into venture capital, we lead with curiosity, originality, and a relentless drive to reimagine what’s possible.

Authenticity

Authenticity is showing up as your true selves and creating space for others to do the same. Authenticity builds trust, strengthens relationships, and fosters a culture where bold ideas can take root and grow. At Qoco Ventures, being real is foundational to how we lead, invest, and collaborate.

Success is the journey through accomplishment and failure without losing enthusiasm.  

    ~Inspired by many great thinkers.


Let's take that success journey...Together!
