Bascom Ventures is a community of accredited UW-Madison alums who pool money into a VC fund to invest in UW-connected companies. Simply put, we believe we can invest better together than we can alone. We create a diverse portfolio for our investors, co-investing with leading VC funds across industry, stage, and geography. Our goal is to raise a new fund each year that benefits entrepreneurs, the school's ecosystem, and our investors. We are private, for profit, ROI-driven, and not affiliated with University of Wisconsin-Madison.
