Investing in the Underestimated

Gateway Capital is a Milwaukee-based venture capital firm that isn't afraid to lean in where others may hesitate. We look for the overlooked – emerging entrepreneurial geographies that traditionally lack venture capital investment. We live by the belief that financial returns and social returns are not mutually exclusive.

Midwest Advantage

We know great ideas can be found everywhere, including here – in the Midwest. Capital efficiency and proximity to 'right to win' industries, uniquely positions the region for innovation.
