About the firm:
The BFM Fund is a seed-stage venture firm that prioritizes investment into Black and diverse founders across industries, within the United States. Our mission is to showcase the ability for diverse entrepreneurs to return capital by creating a repeatable pathway that allows for the majority of our companies to scale and exit their ventures.
