Hawke Ventures

Hawke Ventures is an early-stage venture fund investing in Commerce Tech, MarTech and AdTech companies. It is affiliated with Hawke Media, a digital marketing agency, and says this connection lets it introduce portfolio companies to Hawke Media's brand clients and use the agency's platform to help with due diligence before investing. The firm describes this relationship as giving it an advantage when evaluating and supporting companies in its target sectors, since Hawke Media can also help drive sales for portfolio businesses once they are backed. Testimonials from portfolio company founders, including the co-founder of Firmly, a former global head of e-commerce at Samsung, and the co-founder of PostScript, describe the firm as supportive since their earliest days, helping with introductions to brands and other investors and continuing to add value as the partnership continues.
