About
Crestmont Ventures
Crestmont Ventures provides venture assistance and strategic advice to entrepreneurs working on breakthrough technologies that solve identifiable problems. We focus on a broad range of areas including; consumer products, workflow automation, artificial intelligence, big data, machine vision, and robotics across various industries including health, insurance, legal, security, and advertising.
Seed Funding
We are looking for the crazy ideas that may have a significant chance of working. We are looking for a clear path to understanding the problem that needs to be solved and the economic and market benefit in solving the problem.
Our goal during this stage is to work on eliminating as much of the early stage risk at the lowest possible cost. The seed investment should validate hunches about the market and help define the market strategy.
Product-Market Fit
We work with our entrepreneurs and inventors to dive deep into the industry. Who has the problem our technology solves? How big is the problem? How do our prospective customers buy? What are the barriers to adoption? What are the sales cycles? We are looking at every identified risk to understand the market and how to best achieve product-market fit.
