Midwest Startups

M25 is an early-stage venture firm based in Chicago, investing solely in tech startups headquartered in the Midwest. Since we launched in 2015, we've become the most active investor in our region. We invest broadly, and our unique, analytical approach to venture investing aims to reduce the risk, while maintaining the high returns typically associated with this stage of investing. We emphasize our expansive networks, and thrive on collaboration - helping to syndicate deals, encouraging fair terms as a best practice, and prioritizing relationships. And along the journey, we hope to share a few laughs, whether its over beers or board games.

We're wrapping up our fourth annual Midwest Madness tournament over at Midwest Startups! This is the last opportunity to vote as #9 State College, PA takes on #6 Fargo, ND in the Championship round. Each year, we pit cities against each other from our Best of the Midwest city rankings in a bracket-style tournament. While bragging rights for winning are great, we also get to celebrate the vibrant tech and startup ecosystems across the region.

The M25 team gets super involved in this competition every year, with a giant bracket poster in the Chicago office and a bracket challenge for the coveted "I won" mug. With the finish line in sight, help us determine which of these two cities will be crowned the #MidwestMadness2024 Champion! Vote here: https://lnkd.in/gb_CY6jc
