Welcome to BlackStone Valley Group

Blackstone Valley Group investment mission is seeking out transformative companies that have potential to shape the world’s future. Incorporating a team of professional entrepreneurs with a track record of innovation and company creation, Blackstone Valley Group is a small early stage seed/angel platform for accelerated innovation and parallel entrepreneurship, where we try to implement processes of technological innovativeness and idea conception to merge and rapidly iterate to generate high potential new ventures. The key word here is “try” – and we do as we recognize the struggle of the founders/entrepreneurs as all of us have gone through (still do) the same frustations and exhilarations during our journey off the beaten path.
Blackstone Valley Group on-boards decades of operating and investing experience of its advisors to all the companies in its portfolio. The portfolio consists primarily of seed and early-stage investments, with a few later stage value investments. Critical elements of these investments include founders, management team, financials,  competitive advantage, growth, valuation, use of proceeds, market opportunity. Most importantly what are you doing to change/disrupt the world to make it better? If you are, lets chat!
