Point the founders BIP Ventures can't take to Tech Square Ventures and Overline

Move 1 of 4 for BIP Ventures' team. Who: Program or fund lead. Time: 10 min.

What to do

  1. Add the line below wherever a founder finds out they don't fit: your eligibility section, FAQ or application page.
  2. When PursueATL publishes the Atlanta programs and funds comparison, link to it from the same line.
  3. Let Tech Square Ventures know you did it. The habit works best in both directions.

<p>Not the right fit for BIP Ventures? <a href="https://techsquareventures.com/contact/">Tech Square Ventures</a> (enterprise (B2B) and marketplace technology companies, primarily at Seed, selectively Pre-Seed and Series A; 80% of investments are in the South) and <a href="https://overline.vc/pitch">Overline</a> (founding teams building in Atlanta and across the Southeast, inception through seed, any industry) may be a better match. <a href="https://pursueatl.com/roles/">See every Atlanta program and fund, side by side</a>.</p>

Why it helps

In the answers where the engines turned founders away from BIP Ventures for fit, they sent them to Tech Square Ventures and Overline instead. A founder who hears no from one Atlanta door should land at another Atlanta door, not another city.

This is the habit that makes Atlanta feel like one ecosystem to the engines, and to founders.

Who the engines pick instead

Tech Square Ventures, Overline

The questions this is for

  • Who actually leads seed rounds for Atlanta software startups?
  • Who in Atlanta writes the first institutional check for a hardware or deep tech company?
  • Which Atlanta funds write pre-seed checks under $500k?
  • I have an Atlanta B2B SaaS company at $40k MRR. Which local investors should be on my raise list?
  • Build me a target list of 15 Atlanta-area seed investors for a healthtech company.
