Atlanta, Georgia, 30303
The idea behind GRA Venture Fund was simple: Come up with a new, holistic approach to give more highly promising startups a fair shot at market success. In 2009, the Georgia Research Alliance launched GRA Venture Fund with a $7.5 million “evergreen” investment from the State of Georgia. This helped ignite a strong initial raise from investors – $11.8 million from individuals, universities, foundations and other organizations. A Managing Director leads GRA Venture Fund, along with a Board of Directors composed almost entirely of private sector leaders in Georgia who have invested in the Fund.
