Bringing seed-stage startups to life

IN Wisconsin

We know great ideas can live anywhere,
including in our home state of Wisconsin.

That’s why Winnow Fund is investing in seed-stage startups across the state. We look to invest early in highly motivated entrepreneurs who want to scale their ideas quickly.

Winnow Fund has raised more than $10 million and is now actively making investments.

Our Strategy

The Winnow Fund’s strategy involves making numerous small investments in early-stage companies. Investing early allows us to obtain an equity stake that mitigates some of the risks involved with investing at this stage.
