VPB is a framework and philosophy to fund, scale, and sustain ventures that create lasting impact—powered by capital, capacity, and community.
Traditional VC chases unicorns and overlooks mission-first ventures.
Philanthropy avoids risk and rarely scales.
VPB stands at the intersection—where impact meets execution.
VPB stands for Venture Philanthropy Blueprint™—a bold new model to fund, scale, and support impact-driven entrepreneurs. We focus on founders who have been underinvested—not because they lack merit, but because they’ve lacked access to capital, operational support, and the belief that they can win.
VPB bridges philanthropy, venture capital, and entrepreneurship—offering a new playbook for deploying capital and capacity together to build scalable, purpose-driven ventures that shift mindsets, markets, and outcomes—not just valuations.
