Purple Arch Ventures

From the start, Purple Arch Ventures was thoughtful and easy to work with, achieving the delicate balance of in-depth diligence and respect for a small startup team’s time. It has been a great partnership throughout our growth journey.

Willow Innovations was thrilled to partner with Purple Arch Ventures on our latest round of funding. The investing team brought tremendous insight, passion, diligence and understanding to the process, and helped us creatively tap into the broader alumni community.

I can’t speak more highly of Purple Arch Ventures' seamless process. This is what follow-on investment should be like. It was the right mix of quality due diligence and speed. They asked all the right questions, talked to the right people, and we got the whole deal done in weeks. It was amazing.

I have been involved investing in entrepreneurial endeavors for 16 years, and have been very impressed with the effectiveness of the processes at Purple Arch. Plus, they’re just good people to deal with, both personally and professionally.

I’ve been very impressed by my experience investing with Purple Arch Ventures. I highly recommend this fund as a professional way to diversify your investment portfolio with venture-backed companies.

Purple Arch provides opportunities to invest in rounds that would be difficult to access and offers a seamless diligence and investment process.

I'm an LP in a few great venture funds and a direct investor in over 30 companies. Alumni Ventures offers something more: a wide range of investment opportunities via funds and syndications, as well the ability to support my Northwestern alumni colleagues via Purple Arch Ventures. AV is a go-to platform for high quality venture investment opportunities.

I have been an investor with Alumni Ventures since 2018 - with the Purple Arch Fund 3 (as a Northwestern alumni). Subsequently, I made investments in a couple AV Syndication funds: Civis Analytics & Surge Therapeutics ... and recently, I subscribed to the Deep Tech 5 fund. I have been highly impressed with the quality of companies which Alumni Ventures invests with. The reporting to investors is good and AV offers timely updates. Overall, I am glad to diversify my portfolio with investments in Alumni Venture funds.
