Funding and representation in the tech industry

YOUR ACCESS
POWERED UP

REPRESENTATION HAS NEVER BEEN

SO REWARDING. AND SO RELEVANT.

 

 

 

We're getting dead serious about funding across tech, exploring alternatives to the 'warm intro' and we're doing something about it. We're actively distributing the odds that outlier founders succeed at funding, by putting startup teams directly infront of those who write the checks.

DYVVYD is an intentional AI-driven digital platform whose creators believe in the funding of innovation that directly reflects the society we live in and its impact on creative problem solving through technology.

Inclusion fuels innovation; the data proves it. We are powering the movement for creative problem solving by the funding of exceptional founders and undernetworked companies.

We are excited to be one of the first dedicated platforms using AI with a narrow focus on digital, global & virtual-access to power creative investment vehicles.

Funding

for undernetworked teams is challenging

GLOBAL VENTURE FUNDING IN THE THIRD QUARTER OF 2024 REACHED $66.5B, MARKING A 16% DECREASE FROM THE PREVIOUS QUARTER AND A 15% DROP COMPARED TO THE SAME PERIOD IN 2023.

LUX CAPITAL GENERAL PARTNER DEENA SHAKIR NOTED THAT BACK IN 1995, BIOCHEMIST KATALIN KARIKO COULDN'T RAISE MONEY FOR HER MRNA VACCINE. FAST FORWARD TO 2021, WITHOUT HER RESEARCH, THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN NO HOPE FOR THE COVID-19 VACCINES.

- TECHCRUNCH

STARTUPS FOUNDED/CO-FOUNDED BY WOMEN ARE SIGNIFICANTLY BETTER FINANCIAL INVESTMENTS. FOR EVERY DOLLAR OF FUNDING, THESE STARTUPS GENERATED 78 CENTS, WHILE MALE-FOUNDED STARTUPS SIGNIFICANTLY LESS THAN HALF THAT - JUST 31 CENTS.

- BOSTON CONSULTING GROUP

"RAISING MONEY HAS BECOME MORE CHALLENGING, WITH A SHIFT IN FOCUS TOWARD PROFITABILITY OVER EXTREME GROWTH"

- VOGUE BUSINESS

"AS WE CLOSE OUT THE YEAR, THE VC LANDSCAPE IS RIPE FOR TRANSFORMATION. FOUR TRENDS TO LOOK OUT FOR IN THE NEW YEAR: VC ACTIVITY, IMPACT & SUSTAINABILITY, DEMOCRATIZATION IN VENTURE, AND THE INDUSTRY OF THE YEAR -AI"
- GROOVE CAPITAL

THE CRITERIA BY WHICH INVESTORS JUDGE WOMEN IS SKEWED. WHEN LOOKING AT THE PITCH DECKS OF MEN, INVESTORS OFTEN SPEND MORE TIME ANALYZING THE PRODUCT, WHEN IT COMES TO WOMEN, THEY SPEND MORE TIME LOOKING FOR WHO'S ON THE TEAM.

How It Works

HOW IT WORKS

WE ARE NOT A BOOTCAMP, ACCELERATOR OR INCUBATOR.

DYVVYD IS THE STEP JUST BEYOND THAT.

 

WE WORK WITH COMPANIES ACTIVELY SEEKING TO RAISE CAPITAL THAT ARE SELF-LAUNCHED, SELF-SCALED OR RECENT GRADUATES OF AN INCUBATED OR ACCELERATED COHORT.

With a wholistic approach, we are sector agnostic with an industry focus on broad dealflow..

The true measure of a broader 'funding-worldview' is when ideas outside of our experience, scope or perspective are given a chance to see the light.

To be more effective at positioning our investor and founder community for success within our ecosystem, we're clustering and segmenting each VC firm & startup team per industry and funding track to allow for streamlined access to exclusive networks, curated resources, quality engagements, data aggregation and community building.

ABOUT US

//CONTACT

//FOLLOW

//SILICON VALLEY

//SAN FRANCISCO

This platform is the brainchild of a disruptive group of Silicon Valley-based innovators and partners who believe in closing the funding gap while democratizing investor access for underrestimated founders. With a variety of backgrounds in creating and powering both local [US] and global funding platforms, this network of investors and innovators has made a humble attempt to simplify the complex problem that most founders in the marketplace face when attempting to fund their innovation - access to the money while also creating a clear path to diverse deal flow for investors-at-large. No more excuses for the funding gap. 

 

The DYVVYD concept is simple – a smart, seamless, process for founders to gain access to the best investors in the industry committed to diversity and inclusion, with D&I as a distinct thesis. In turn, investors driven to diversify their portfolio and connect to untapped markets can do so through the marketplace portal where profiles, pitch decks and pitch videos of diverse startups can be easily accessed.

 

We believe in 'innovation-for-all' and by its funding, all communities of society [and all consumers of technology] can be equally represented by the solutions created to solve their own needs in their very own backyard.

THE CONCEPT

Since our launch in early 2019, we're using the power of Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence to power our community and connectivity.
