Building Minnesota’s Investor Pipeline

Groove Investor Cohorts are designed to train and activate new early-stage investors — particularly those who have not traditionally had access to angel investing networks.

Through a high-touch, peer-based model, cohorts combine structured education, relationship-building, and direct exposure to live investment opportunities.

Since 2022, this program has created repeatable pathways for women, Indigenous communities, Black, Brown, Latin, and sector-focused investors to confidently enter the market.
