Let's Design a Better Future Together
360 Venture Collective is a woman-founded and led venture firm with an intentionally inclusive investment thesis.
We fund & accelerate pre-seed & seed stage venture scale tech-enabled companies led by historically underestimated founders building in the fin-tech, health-tech, prop-tech, and future of work sectors. Today we focus on funding companies that are registered and based in the United States.
Our team is deeply committed to providing funding, resources, and advisory support to innovative founders that have historically had limited access to venture capital funding.

The Visionary
Kelly O'Connell
Managing Partner
My friends call me "Google." I don't neatly fit in a box. I'm a geek, an athlete, and a coach with a deep love of learning and people. I'm money-motivated and purpose-driven. I've climbed the corporate ladder, helped several startups achieve unicorn status, and assisted many Fortune 500's in avoiding disruption and improving sustainability. I've lived the life of an advocate, executive, and founder. Thrilled to lead and learn as a VC.

Future of Work
Fin-Tech
Venture funding for health innovators exceeded 14 billion yet the continuing global crisis of health inequity predicts strong opportunity for this sector. Investing in those bridging the gap.
Technology optimizes the way people research, rent, buy, sell, manage, and develop property. Data proves this industry will continue to evolve rapidly due to consumer demand and the impact of climate change.
The workforce is shifting at an unprecedented rate. The way we work, collaborate, and set and achieve objectives, is quickly changing. Tools that predict, empower, and enable change adoption are essential.
At the intersection of regulation, market demand, and opportunity tools that empower traditionally underrepresented individuals gain financial clarity and control are positioned to win.
