Greenhouse Ventures (GHV) is an investment and venture development firm that owns and operates the cannabis and hemp industry's first early-stage innovation accelerator and growth-stage incubator in the world. Our mission is to increase the rate of success for Innovation Ecosystem Stakeholders in the cannabis and hemp industries.Our Investment Thesis is to build, acquire, and partner with successful businesses that will lead to or benefit from cannabis and hemp industry restructuring. We believe in building technology-enabled and branded product companies for $1M - $5M that attain some level of commercial viability, acquire customers predictably, and can later be sold for $25M - $250M. Our investment thesis is rooted in identifying coachable, resilient, domain experts who portray servant-leadership qualities.For Entrepreneurs, GHV is the first advisor on the cap table, the first line of defense from outside threats, the first sales partner working with founders to close the first 10 significant deals, and (selectively) the first C-level or interim-management position hired to help scale the business. For Investors, GHV is a lower risk and lower barrier-to-entry investment and due diligence network compared to traditional family office, venture fund, angel network, and private equity vehicles.Greenhouse Ventures' Unique Value Proposition is the result of our relentless pursuit of four key pillars practiced internally and reinforced within the cultures of our portfolio companies: Diversity (in people, ideas, and clients), Business Model Scalability, Capital Efficiency, and Core Community Contributions.
