Overview

Westbound Equity Partners is an early-stage venture capital firm that invests in companies led by underrepresented founders, particularly Black and Latine founders, or those building solutions for diverse communities. The firm focuses on pre-seed, seed, and Series A stages and aims to create a 'virtuous cycle of wealth and opportunity' by deploying both financial and social capital. A significant part of their model involves committing 50% of their profits to the Westbound Community Foundation to support non-profit organizations.
