Equity Investing 

Beginning in 2002, Robinson Ventures began investing in early-stage information technology businesses that specialized in Web 2.0 and custom software application development.

In 2008, Robinson Ventures began to diversify its investments to consider green technology and healthcare technology (data, SaaS, AI/ML) companies. We invest at the earliest stages of company development, providing a pipeline of investment opportunities for later-stage venture funds. In addition to our monetary commitments, we also invest "sweat equity" and provide our strategic planning, business development, and consulting services.

We make 3-5 investments every year. We choose to limit our investments as we wish to concentrate on the success of the companies and subsequently our equity and not divest ourselves thereby taking our attention away from the company during its key formative years.
