Georges Doriot pioneered modern venture capital. Doriot® leads the movement to make venture universally accessible and winnable — powered by education and gameplay.
Georges Doriot’s principles, developed through decades at Harvard Business School and as president of American Research and Development Corporation (ARD), guide our approach today.
Back grade-A entrepreneurs with grade-B ideas over the reverse.
Focus on sustainable growth, not quick exits.
Combine funding with mentorship and strategic support.
View setbacks as essential steps toward success.
Create technologies that serve the greater good.
Stay dedicated through the long journey of building.
Build companies that become useful citizens doing outstandingly well in their field.
We are on a mission to bring venture capital to communities through a revolutionary new approach called VentureStaking®, a patent-pending game of venture that transforms how we support entrepreneurs.
“Designed for humans to support human innovation.”
Invest in tomorrow’s winners. The opportunity to back a proven, winning startup is more valuable than betting on an unproven idea today.
A unique blend of giving and investing that helps founders get started while backers watch progress before committing capital.
Early backers can observe, support, and make informed decisions as founders demonstrate their ability to execute and win.
VentureStaking® and the democratization of venture — as featured across leading podcasts and channels.
Just as Georges Doriot revolutionized venture capital in the 20th century, we’re reimagining it for communities in the 21st century.
