A venture capital firm that invests in B2B software companies, focusing on elevating exceptional founders.

Las Olas Venture Capital

Las Olas Venture Capital (LOVC) is a seed-stage lead investor venture capital firm. We typically invest up to $3M in seed rounds of B2B software companies and then work closely with the founders to get them to the next level. We believe a new generation of B2B companies is emerging out of places largely ignored by traditional venture capital. This is a global phenomenon driven by the mass digitization of industries. At LOVC, we partner with early-stage startups capitalizing on the growing demand for technology that modernizes outdated business workflows and provides measurable ROI benefits. Our core mission is to amplify their impact. We achieve this by taking a low-frequency, high-conviction investment approach, which enables us to be deeply collaborative and hands-on with the founders we back. We believe that this focused approach, coupled with our firsthand experience in building and scaling companies, gives us an asymmetrical advantage in identifying and supporting the next category-defining software companies. We aim to be the partner of choice for those founders and work diligently to build the future.

At Las Olas Venture Capital, we pride ourselves on backing visionary entrepreneurs like Bill Catania, the Founder and CEO of OneRail. As OneRail's first VC investor in 2020, we've participated in every round since, partnering with them on their impressive growth and innovation in last-mile logistics.

Bill Catania's entrepreneurial journey is a testament to resilience and ingenuity, from launching RaceFan and M-Dot Network to revolutionizing logistics with OneRail. Born from the frustration of slow deliveries, OneRail connects companies with over 12 million delivery partners, automating real-time fulfillment across various modes (courier, LTL/FTL/Parcel, pickup, etc.). This flexibility and speed create a competitive edge for businesses, significantly reducing costs and enhancing customer satisfaction.

OneRail's unique selling points lie in its blend of cutting-edge technology and human-led management, ensuring smooth, reliable deliveries. This dedication to excellence recently earned it the title of Last Mile Company of the Year at the 2024 SupplyTech Breakthrough Awards. Additionally, its recent acquisition of Orderbot Software Inc. marks a significant leap in omnichannel fulfillment.

Join us in celebrating Bill Catania and the OneRail team's pursuit of innovation and excellence.

What team has the leading social value over the last year across the major 6 leagues (MLS, MLB, NHL, NBA, NFL, NWSL)? None other than Inter Miami CF. It's been 365 days since Messi signed with Inter Miami. Here are some of the impressive milestones that he has helped the club reach since his signing:

⚽️ Inter Miami came out on top with more than $300M in value – ~$100M more than the next closest team, the Los Angeles Lakers.

⚽️ 500M + engagements - 260M more than the Los Angeles Lakers.

⚽️ Inter Miami's value crossed the $1B mark, up 73% from the 2023 season before Messi's arrival.

⚽️ Inter Miami's ticket prices have doubled, and MLS season pass subscriptions on Apple TV have significantly increased.

The top brands for Inter Miami (excluding league-wide partners) were AutoNation, Royal Caribbean Group, and AT&T, which each generated more than $40M in social value. 

Do you think Inter Miami will remain the most valuable team over the next year?

Las Olas Venture Capital (LOVC) is an early-stage venture capital fund that invests in startups in various industries. Their core mission is to amplify the impact of founders building the future in nonobvious geographies and industries. As active lead investors with a concentrated early-stage portfolio, their support extends beyond capital. LOVC provides tailored strategic and operational guidance to our founders and connects them to our networks of capital, talent, and potential customers. Investment themes reflect their view on the emerging technologies and business architectures that they think will fundamentally impact how the world runs. LOVC focuses on investing in B2B software companies. This approach to B2B software investing stems from their deep operational expertise in scaling these types of companies and our conviction that a unique market opportunity exists for innovation within the enterprise. They believe that regardless of background or location, when determined, intelligent people make it their mission to solve a challenging problem and change the world, they often do. They are generalist investors within B2B and target investments in vertical SaaS, software-enabled marketplaces, and knowledge worker tools. Consumer-facing technology, hardware or service-based businesses, and industries like biotech and Web3 that require deep domain expertise to develop conviction fall outside their thesis. LOVC's investments typically demonstrate early product-market fit signals. $15-75K MRR is their sweet spot for recurring revenue businesses, but they understand that product market fit also manifests in other ways. LOVC invests in companies based in the Eastern United States.
