Homeroom Fund is a youth-led venture capital firm that invests in early and seed stage startups within the broader technology industry. The fund is entirely led by students in high school or recent graduates, providing a unique perspective when talking to founders, assessing startups, and understanding the technology behind them. Homeroom Fund invests at the pre-seed, seed, and Series A stages, seeking companies with demonstrable traction (either a prototype or full product) and product-market fit where possible. The fund is industry-agnostic within technology, preferring business models such as B2B2C, retail, consumer packaged goods, direct-to-consumer, and SaaS, while specifically avoiding medical technology and biological life sciences.
