Investing in technologies that make the world more equitable for all through Generative AI

We’ve been there with the founders

The general public has often misunderstood founders, as they are unconventional visionaries. After seeing how the venture capital ecosystem is broken with misaligned incentives, we formed CCV to set a new standard for early stage VC. Here are the ways we have walked with trailblazing founders on their journeys.

Sampriti Bhattacharyya

"Josh is a call away to his portfolio people... through the wins and the stresssful times. For Navier, he has been the most helpful angel investor, and I couldn't be more excited to have someone like him on our journey."

Calvin Young

"Once he backs a founder, he's completely and unwaveringly in their corner. He’s the type of investor I want to call at 10pm on a Saturday night, and I can feel confident that Josh will help point me in the right direction."

Khoa Tran

"Despite the skepticism I faced, every conversation we had made me more and more convinced there was still magic left to be discovered. Josh’s unrelenting optimism and curiosity encouraged me to keep going."
