DQventures is a new kind of venture builder. What makes it unique is the exclusive focus on more experienced professionals, and a model that enables founders to start a venture without first leaving their employment. Perhaps surprisingly, the average age of a successful founder is around 45; but by that age most professionals have acquired expenses and dependencies that deny them the freedom to "just go for it". DQ = don't quit. If you're a subject matter expert; if you deeply understand a business problem; and if know how to solve it, we could help you start a venture, and apply our knowledge of launching, funding, growing, and selling companies to de-risk your entrepreneurial journey. You bring the unfair advantage; we'll help you avoid the obstacles that cause 95% of startups to fail. Over the next five years, we aim to partner with 100 such senior professionals. We will work alongside them, personally, to co-found a series of potentially multi-million-dollar ventures. We'll support them through the earliest days of the business, help them generate initial traction, and remain onboard as advisers once the business is funded and the founder has joined full time.
