Description

Reshape Ventures is a New York-based venture capital firm specializing in technology-enabled companies that leverage real estate for their core operations and scaling. Their unique investment thesis targets sectors such as PropTech, logistics, retail tech, and hospitality, where physical space is integral to the business model. This strategic focus allows Reshape to not only provide capital but also significant operational and industry-specific expertise, differentiating them from generalist VCs.

Reshape typically engages with companies from the Seed stage through Series B rounds. Their initial investment checks generally range from $500,000 to $3,000,000, reflecting their commitment to early-stage growth. However, the firm maintains the capacity to deploy substantial follow-on capital, with the ability to invest up to $10,000,000 over the lifetime of a portfolio company. This flexible approach supports their portfolio companies through multiple growth phases.

Beyond capital, Reshape Ventures emphasizes a hands-on, value-add approach, leveraging its deep understanding of real estate markets and operational complexities. Their team comprises experienced investors and operators who actively support founders in navigating the challenges of scaling real estate-intensive businesses. Notable investments include companies like Saltbox, a flexible warehouse and co-working provider, and Flexe, an on-demand warehousing and fulfillment network, both of which exemplify Reshape's commitment to transforming industries at the intersection of technology and physical infrastructure. The firm has made approximately 15 investments, demonstrating a focused yet active portfolio strategy.
