Venture South announces 17 investments in first half of 2020

Despite health and economic challenges brought on by the COVID pandemic, VentureSouth has announced (see release here) that the angel fund invested nearly $4 million in 17 early stage companies through the first six months of the year. This commitment matched last year’s record for companies funded in a six-month period. Nearly two-thirds of the capital deployed by the Greenville, SC-based firm came after the onset of pandemic quarantines in March.

Venture South lists nearly 50 companies in its active portfolio including Knoxville-based Vendor Registry.
