What We Do
We do not invest in ventures. We invest in people and stories, which are at the heart of everything we do
At ODBA, our primary focus is on the individuals driving the venture. We seek out and invest in visionary entrepreneurs with the passion, determination, and skills to turn their innovative ideas into groundbreaking companies. By empowering these exceptional founders, we enable the creation of impactful businesses that redefine industries.
We offer dedicated, customized support to each founder in our portfolio, understanding that their needs and challenges vary. Our experienced advisors and industry specialists work hand-in-hand with founders, providing tailored guidance, actionable insights, and strategic direction to help them navigate the complexities of building a successful venture.
Being part of the ODBA family grants founders access to our wide-ranging network of industry pioneers, fellow entrepreneurs, and strategic partners. We actively foster connections and collaboration, opening doors for knowledge-sharing, mutual growth, and the forging of valuable partnerships.
