Bright Path Ventures

We exist to carve out space in industries that have long excluded underrepresented voices. Our programming is designed to help historically marginalized founders gain the knowledge, tools, and confidence to navigate sectors that weren’t built for them. We offer technical training in industries like tech, clean energy, sustainable agriculture, and media production — but we also work to transform those industries by showing that leadership can look, sound, and operate differently. Our community events bring together founders, investors, artists, and organizers to reimagine what power-sharing can look like. We fund collaborative experiments, support creative risk-taking, and actively dismantle gatekeeping wherever we find it. Most importantly, we believe that inclusion is not about getting a seat at someone else’s table — it’s about building new tables altogether. We’re here to make sure that founders who’ve been underestimated at every turn now have the space, structure, and community to thrive.
