Concept2Company Ventures is a seed-stage venture capital fund located in Silicon Valley. We help professors, staff, graduate students, and recent university graduates start commercial ventures. C2C invests capital to help these researchers build successful businesses based on their ideas. C2C gets involved with new ventures far earlier than other venture capital firms. Often there isn’t even a business plan or a complete team – just a promising technology and a desire to do something useful with it. We enjoy the challenge of helping people shape an idea for a business.
