THE INVESTMENT PLATFORM & STARTUP
DIGITAL COMMUNITY POWERED BY DATA & A.I
WHERE WE DIGITIZE INVESTOR RELATIONS AND WHERE UNDERESTIMATED AND UNDERNETWORKED FOUNDERS WITH NO WARM INTROS, ELITE NETWORK OR
IVY-LEAGUE CONNECTIONS, GET ACCESS TO, AND PARTNER WITH,
EXPERTS, TOP INDUSTRY ACCELERATORS & INVESTORS.
YOUR ACCESS.
POWERED UP.
REPRESENTATION HAS NEVER BEEN
SO REWARDING. AND SO RELEVANT.
We're getting dead serious about inclusion, exploring alternatives to the 'warm intro' and we're doing something about it. We're not an 'inclusive' hashtag, a movement or a cause; however while we're ardent supporters of these campaigns, we're making intentional efforts a step beyond, by actively distributing the odds that outlier founders succeed at funding and representation, by putting startup teams directly infront of those who write the checks.
​
DYVVYD is an intentional AI-driven digital platform whose creators believe in the power of diversity in tech, equality in representation and the funding of innovation that directly reflects the society we live in and its impact on creative problem solving through technology.
​
Inclusion fuels innovation; the data proves it. We are powering the movement for creative problem solving by the funding of exceptional founders and overlooked startups.
​
We are excited to be one of the first dedicated platforms using AI with a narrow focus on digital & virtual-access to power creative funding in the dual startup and venture capital industry.

WE HAVE RECEIVED LOTS OF INTEREST AS WE BUILD OUT THIS REVOLUTIONARY A.I POWERED MARKETPLACE TO HELP POWER ACCESS FOR UNDERESTIMATED TEAMS & THE INVESTORS THAT WANT TO FIND/FUND THEM

DYVVYD IS THE STEP JUST BEYOND THAT.
WE WORK WITH TEAMS ACTIVELY SEEKING TO RAISE CAPITAL THAT ARE SELF-LAUNCHED, SELF-SCALED OR RECENT GRADUATES OF AN INCUBATED OR ACCELERATED COHORT.

​
The true measure of a broader 'funding-worldview' is when ideas outside of our experience, scope or perspective are given a chance to see the light.
​
To be more effective at positioning our investor and founder community for success within our ecosystem, we're clustering and segmenting each VC firm & startup team per industry and funding track to allow for streamlined access to investor pitch sessions, professional-partner mentorship sit-downs, data aggregation and community building.
