Constellation Software is willing to provide funding for startups from pre-seed to growth stages of the business. However, funding for startups only occurs if your company meets the above criteria and we are comfortable with the opportunity.
Every investment will be looked at independently. However, in all cases:
You should start by emailing karl.schabas@vmsfund.com. Include a brief description of your idea and why you believe it meets the criteria of the fund. Since we are providing funding for startups in all stages, we are also willing to hear your idea in whatever stage it is currently in. From general opportunities you see in the market to having a full pitch deck, we are willing to listen to you and provide feedback. After that, we will talk about next steps.
Keep in mind that all funding for startups and investments will require a business unit sponsor from within Constellation. If you already have a business unit leader that supports your application, be sure to include this in your email.
Any further questions on funding for startups or VMS Ventures, feel free to reach out to karl.schabas@vmsfund.com
