Menlo Labs starts companies

About Menlo Labs

Menlo Labs is a new kind of venture studio that helps founders build companies that solve big problems and create lasting impact. Together, we build companies that matter.

We work closely with promising founders to focus their vision and guide them toward the largest opportunity. We fuel them with capital and reduce risks along the way so they can build smarter and scale faster than they could on their own.

Why Menlo Labs?

• Bespoke program:
  We are selective about the opportunities we pursue, partnering with only a handful of founders at a time and tailoring the program around the business you are building.
• The team before your team:
  Menlo Labs’ team of experts are not just your advisors—we’re hands-on partners, helping you build your startup from the ground up.
• Proven process to find product-market fit:
  We help you target the biggest opportunity, define your MVP, land your first customers, develop your business model, and recruit your founding team.
• Investor champion:
  We match Menlo Labs founders to a Menlo Ventures partner with relevant domain expertise and deep market knowledge. This partner will champion your business, help shape your strategy, provide a VC lens, and make meaningful introductions.
• Pre-seed funding to fuel breakthrough businesses:
  Our flexible funding is designed to carry you from zero to one, positioning you to raise your next round.
• Startup in a box:
  We help you stand up your business rapidly, allowing you to focus on what really matters—building the next big thing.

Building a breakthrough business from nothing is hard AF. Create a strong foundation, build smart from the start, and chart a path to success with Menlo Labs as your partner.
