YOUR REAL ODDS

They have backed 75+ companies across two funds totaling $170M, with Fund II just closing at $95M oversubscribed.

The fund is actively deploying capital from a freshly closed $95M fund, which means they are actively looking for deals. Competition is real — this is institutional VC, not a grant, and they are selective about fit with their thesis.

WHAT IT TAKES

  1. Submit your pitch via their website pitch form — 30–60 minutes to prepare

  2. Initial review and outreach from the Collide team — Weeks to months, no stated timeline

  3. Due diligence and partner meetings if selected — Weeks to months

WORTH KNOWING

Collide Capital was founded by the builders of AfroTech and BLCK VC — their network is deeply tied to those communities, so founders connected to those ecosystems may have a warm path in beyond a cold pitch form submission.
