Kickstart Fund is Entrepreneurial VCs making it happen in the Wild West.

If you’re searching for startup funding, you’ve probably checked out a few VC websites. And you’re probably thinking we all sound the same — we all back “exceptional founders” and humble brag about the “added value” we bring. Let us tell you why we’re different, with as little bravado as possible for a VC:

Kickstart Fund was founded in 2008. Yes, that 2008. Our founder Gavin Christensen and partner Dalton Wright know what it's like when you’ve got fundraising for your startup only to find it takes longer than anticipated. And they know how to help you through it.

Because we were the first seed fund in Utah, we know what it’s like to start something before others understand the vision, which means we’re willing to lead investments in promising but early teams. We use our experiences to grow your startup and recruit top talent, alongside our community of visionaries that are committed to moving the whole ecosystem together. It’s the network effect in full effect. 

Raising venture capital is more than swapping shares for money; it’s inviting the right investors to complement your team. We hope we’ll be your choice for seed funding in the Mountain West.
