About
BBQ Capital is a venture capital firm based in San Francisco, California, dedicated to supporting ambitious entrepreneurs from the earliest stages of their startups. Founded in 2018, the firm began as a series of casual gatherings connecting founders and investors, which evolved into monthly events fostering deeper relationships and collaboration. This community-driven approach laid the foundation for BBQ Capital's investment philosophy, emphasizing hands-on support and strategic guidance alongside financial backing.
The firm focuses on investing in companies from formation to pre-IPO stages, including pre-revenue and pre-product ventures, as well as providing follow-on capital for Seed and Series A rounds. BBQ Capital also manages BBQ Opportunities, which invests larger checks in mature companies from Series B onwards and those that don't fit the traditional venture capital fund model. The firm's portfolio spans various industries, including software, financial services, fintech, information technology, B2B, mobile, payments, artificial intelligence, healthcare, and SaaS.
Notable investments include Quinn, Andromeda Surgical, Coco, Andi, and Regression Games. BBQ Capital's team comprises experienced professionals committed to empowering founders with the resources and expertise needed to scale their businesses effectively.
