Gravity Ventures, LLC., an angel capital fund focused on investing in early-stage, high-growth businesses, was featured in the Indianapolis Business Journal this weekend. Gravity Ventures emerged out of discussions we had been having around the studio for several years. For several years Kristian Andersen + Associates had been in the process of formalizing the process of making equity investments in our clients. We knew that there was a larger opportunity (and demand) for a fund that would allow mid-career executives to make smart venture investments. Six months ago I, along with the other managing member Mike Fitzgerald, launched Gravity Ventures. Since then we have successfully raised a committed fund (in arguably the toughest fund raising environment in the past 75 years) from 15 members and have already made two investments in Indianapolis-based Vontoo and Compendium Blogware.
