Profile

Fjord takes a fundamentally different approach than traditional venture capital. We rely on true aligned incentives among entrepreneurs, management, limited partners and money handlers to drive value creation in our portfolio. The Fjord Ventures accelerator provides a highly capital efficient shared infrastructure to Portfolio companies and offers a dedicated funding source through Fjord Capital Partners. The portfolio is managed by Fjord’s seasoned team, which has over 50 years of combined operating experience.





Efficiencies created by this model reduce dilution and return management’s incentives to capital efficiency and speed to market. Wealth is generated by delivering successful exits instead of collecting management fees or receiving outsized executive salaries. Investments are focused on strategic value creation rather than building redundant infrastructure or capabilities. The result of this approach is increased return on investment and reduced time to liquidity.
