Redhawk VC is a venture capital firm based in Birmingham, Alabama, dedicated to supporting entrepreneurs and startups in underserved markets outside traditional hubs like Silicon Valley, Boston, and New York. Founded by former entrepreneurs Mickey Millsap and Matt Hottle, the firm emphasizes a founder-centric approach, offering not only capital but also mentorship and strategic guidance. Their investment philosophy centers on five core areas: strong founding teams, market and customer validation, data-driven approaches, capital efficiency, and a focus on locations outside established startup ecosystems.

Redhawk VC manages the $25 million Alabama Futures Fund, a seed-stage fund that serves as a lead investor and reserves capital for follow-on funding. Their portfolio includes companies like Case Status, VirtualCare, Joonko Diversity, Prepaid2Cash, TeamingPro, SynsorMed, True Load Time, and Linq.
