Awesome to see the new partnership between Betterleave Bereavement and LoveWell Hospice - Betterleave continuing to do incredible work as they work to make bereavement care better for all.

Last night, Bread and Butter Ventures hosted a virtual event specifically for the student audience called  "Intro to Venture Capital for Students."

Our managing partners, Mary Grove and Brett Brohl, dove into the essentials of venture capital, discussing what it entails and how success is measured, and shared some about the inner workings of Bread & Butter. They also talked through the different pathways and resources for those aspiring to enter the venture capital field.

We were thrilled to have more than 40+ students join us from from across the country - from Syracuse to Minneapolis, from Orlando to Los Angeles, representing amazing schools like St. Thomas, UCLA, Georgetown, Tufts, and more.

A huge thank you to all the students for their participation and incredible questions. Your engagement made the event truly special.

Looking forward to more such interactions in the future!

Reminder for students - our special virtual session all about the world of venture capital is this Wednesday! More details and sign-up form are below in Mary Grove's post ->

Congratulations to Betterleave Bereavement on their new partnership with Sonder Hospice! Betterleave will provide comprehensive grief and loss support as an added service to Sonder's patients and their families.

Incredibly important work, and we're proud to back Betterleave as they continue to transform bereavement care.

Bread and Butter Ventures is excited to share our 2024 Food Tech Thesis!

After 9 years of investing in food tech, we're more convinced than ever of the massive opportunities in this $14 trillion industry. This year, we're shining a spotlight on an area we're particularly bullish about: Vertical SaaS within food.
What's Vertical SaaS? It's cloud-based software tailored for specific industries - in this case, various segments of the food sector. Companies like Milk Moovement, First Bite and Pantry AI are great examples from our portfolio.

Why are we excited about Vertical SaaS in food?
1. It addresses real, valuable problems in the industry
2. Focused go-to-market strategies enable rapid early growth
3. It provides a strong platform for expansion into new revenue streams

As Brett Brohl writes, "For us, niche isn't scary; it is the starting point for a gigantic, world-changing opportunity."

Want to learn more about our thesis and why we believe food tech will see increased outsized liquidity events in the next 5 years? Check out the full post via the link in comments.

We'd love to hear your thoughts! What areas of food tech are you most excited about for 2024?
