Description

TMV (Trailmix Ventures) is a New York-based early-stage venture capital firm established in 2017, focusing on companies that contribute to the "future of living well." Their investment thesis broadly encompasses sectors like health and wellness, the future of work, sustainable living, fintech, and artificial intelligence. The firm primarily targets pre-seed and seed-stage companies, though they occasionally participate in Series A rounds, aiming to support founders at the foundational stages of their growth.

TMV is known for its hands-on approach, providing strategic guidance and leveraging its extensive network to support portfolio companies beyond just capital. They typically deploy initial checks ranging from $500,000 to $2 million, demonstrating a commitment to significant early-stage support. The firm seeks out innovative solutions that address critical societal needs and improve quality of life, often looking for strong founding teams with clear visions for scalable impact. Their portfolio includes over 100 companies across diverse sub-sectors of their core thesis.

The firm has shown consistent growth in its fundraising efforts, reflecting increasing investor confidence in its strategy and team. In May 2021, TMV successfully closed its second fund, TMV Fund II, at $60 million. Building on this momentum, the firm announced the close of its third and most recent fund, TMV Fund III, at $100 million in June 2023. This significant increase in capital allows TMV to continue its mission of backing transformative companies that are shaping healthier, more sustainable, and more productive futures. Their strategic capital deployment and active involvement aim to foster long-term success for their portfolio.
