Venture Capital Communities

A global collective of 5,000+ Gen Z VCs, founders, angel investors, startup enthusiasts and aspiring VC

We believe that it is impossible to simplify the role of a venture capitalist into a standardized playbook. That being said, the lack of structure has allowed for a number of different frameworks to be implemented across different funds. We built Confluence to help VCs connect with each other and share templates, resources, ideas, and deal flow. Our ultimate goal is to make each member more effective in their roles by leveraging the collective power of the community. Confluence.VC is completely free to use, and our goal is to keep you engaged and coming back regularly. Updates and new tools are added frequently!
