Seedbrite Ventures
Seedbrite Ventures is a specialized venture capital firm, founded in 2022 and based in Buffalo, New York, that focuses on democratizing and streamlining access to the venture capital asset class for Registered Investment Advisors (RIAs) and family offices. The firm’s core product is Seedcraft, an innovative platform designed to empower small and mid-sized RIAs by giving them unparalleled access to top-tier venture managers and investment opportunities. Seedbrite’s vision is to demystify venture capital, allowing financial professionals to focus on precision allocation while the firm’s seasoned legal and operations teams adeptly handle fund creation, administration, and all necessary legalities, often structuring funds to align with IRC Section 1202 for potential significant tax advantages.
The platform is built on a foundation of uncompromising standards, with a meticulous pre-screening process ensuring that only high-quality venture managers are available to co-curate custom investment products. Seedcraft offers RIAs the unique opportunity to design and present “white label” funds, creating venture portfolios that are exclusively tailored to their clients’ specific needs and resonate with the RIA’s personal brand. By leveraging their team’s extensive background—including involvement in over $5 billion in private securities transactions—Seedbrite aims to provide investors with exposure to early-stage companies and the potential upside that comes from getting in on the ground floor, which helps to normalize the venture capital asset class within the broader wealth management industry.
Seedbrite Ventures actively engages in strategic partnerships to enhance its offerings, notably collaborating with firms like Coolwater Capital to lead its venture manager investment strategy, thereby curating a high-quality pool of emerging fund managers for the Seedcraft platform. Additionally, the firm has partnered with technology platforms like iCapital to provide financial professionals with essential alternative investment education and compliance training. Securities for Seedbrite’s programs are offered through JCC Capital Markets, LLC, a member of FINRA and SIPC. This commitment to due diligence, educational support, and leveraging innovative technology solidifies Seedbrite’s role as a frontrunner in transforming venture capital distribution.
