The new Maine Venture Fund website is officially live!

We rebuilt the site from the ground up to better reflect who we are, how we work, and the resources available to Maine’s innovation ecosystem.

Whether you're a founder building in Maine, a co-investor exploring Maine deal flow, or a partner supporting entrepreneurship and economic growtg, we invite you to take a look around.

The updated site offers a clearer view into MVF’s investment approach, application process, portfolio, and mission to support high-growth Maine companies.

A big thank you to Tom and the team at Norde Creative for their partnership on the redesign and development process.
