Baruch Future Ventures (BFV) is a San Francisco-based family office and venture capital office launched by renowned venture investor Tom Baruch. It targets pain points in climate sensitive and resource limited markets. The current portfolio holds 27 companies spanning energy, healthcare, food, air and water quality, and food and agriculture. BFV partners with entrepreneurs to cut the time and cost needed to commercialize resource technology innovations. Among the many factors in an investment decision, BFV names three as most important: - Team: diverse teams with complementary skill sets, ideally with prior entrepreneurial experience. - Market: resource markets are by definition multi-$B Total Available Markets, but companies must show a keen understanding of which segments they can address (Served Addressable Markets) and where they will begin (Target Markets). - Technology: the underlying innovations must be defensible through a sound intellectual property strategy that combines patents and trade secrets.
