BAM Ventures is an early-stage consumer-focused fund based in Los Angeles, CA. We are searching for the next iconic consumer businesses, and invest in both consumer technologies as well as consumer packaged goods and services. We are often the first institutional investors in the companies that we invest in, and as long-time operators and entrepreneurs ourselves, we take a founder-focused approach to our investment thesis.
