Overview

Lunch Pail Ventures is a global network and angel group of business and technology leaders, many of whom are alumni of Virginia Tech (Hokies), focused on entrepreneurship. The firm is not a traditional VC but rather a membership platform that provides accredited investors with access to invest in Hokie-led companies, primarily at the Series A or Series B stage, through Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs). The name is inspired by the 'Lunch Pail' mentality symbolizing hard work, introduced by Virginia Tech's legendary coach Bud Foster.
