How we work with Graphite Ventures
The weekly digest for Graphite Ventures is filtered to B2B SaaS, AI, Health · Pre-seed and Seed · Canada and North America.
Each one came to an Ascent Valley evening, presented what it is building and answered questions from the people at the tables.
What the founder presented in the room and the numbers they submitted with their application — only the companies that fit these filters, and no quota to fill.
When a company fits, we make the introduction ourselves, when both sides want it. Never a cold deck, never a list handed over.
