At Cowles Ventures we believe innovation, passion and integrity drive value. We invest in high-growth companies that utilize disruptive technologies and business practices. Our focus is on the Media, Healthcare, Environmental Advancement, and Enterprise SaaS sectors.

We look for clear points of defensibility such as a strong brand potential, protected distribution, patented products and exclusive product or service rights. We seek partners who share the value we place on trust, hard work, and communication. Our target investment range is $250,000 to $5 million.
