Our Approach
At Boring Ventures, we are committed to innovation and excellence, transforming industries, solving complex
problems, and creating sustainable value through cutting-edge technologies and strategic investments.
We chase business models which
are too small or not VC fundable but
still require initial capital to take off.
Here’s our definition
of boring companies
While bootstrapping—building a profitable business without external funding—is often underrated, it's the most common form of entrepreneurship worldwide. We champion this approach through our concept of "boring companies" (which reflects the type of businesses we focus on), allowing external capital while preserving the benefits of bootstrapping.
Contrary to some investor assumptions, boring companies aren't small un-impactful businsees run by founders without ambition. They are solving real-world problems, prioritize sustainable growth, and aim for profitability and dividend generation, or exit on the founders' terms - with a long-term ambition. We value these businesses for their built-in optionality; they are designed to be early cash-flow positive while still offering the potential for attractive exits. These companies are built for long-term success.
What is a
boring company
‘Boring companies’ solve real-world problems with sustainable, profitable growth. Far from lacking ambition, they focus on steady progress, capital efficiency, and long-term value.
It's the aspirational goal of many of the world's top entrepreneurs: to build a profitable, scalable business that can be operated from anywhere.

These businesses are capital efficient, strategically leveraging various sources of outside funding without becoming reliant on them. They maintain strong unit economics, consistently earning more than they spend.
Grow at a sustainable pace that maps to the right risk profile and opportunity they are going after. They do not pursue the “growth at all costs” mentality of venture-backed startups.
Faster liquidity through profit sharing and provide a broader range of exit options beyond the traditional IPO or bust scenario.
Deep commitment to building resilient, durable business models that can thrive in the long run, adapting to change while maintaining a strong foundation.

Ready to start a boring venture?
Discuss the Business
If you already have a business, we’ll evaluate whether it fits our “boring ventures” philosophy. If you don’t have a specific idea yet but want to partner with us to incubate one, we take a slightly different approach.
We’ll discuss the key questions:
What’s your business about?
Why now?
Why you?
What are your expectations from this partnership?
This step ensures both sides have clear expectations and that we aren’t wasting anyone’s time. It's an iterative process that may take time before finalizing a direction.
Lets start building
Start the Conversation:
The first step is all about getting to know each other and exploring potential partnership ideas. This isn't a pitch – it's about finding value alignment, cultural fit, and mutual understanding.
We focus on understanding who you are, your passion, and your experience as a founder. Whether you’ve built multiple companies or are a first-time entrepreneur, we want to know your vision and expectations for building a business.
We also assess the alignment on our definition of a “boring company.” This step involves a few calls, sometimes taking longer, as we prioritize building long-term relationships.
Due Diligence & Setup
For new ventures, we focus on detailing the business strategy, financial model, and partnership terms.
At the end of this process, we’ll have a clear understanding of the business and will make a joint GO or NO-GO decision on moving forward together.

Discuss the Business
Once we’ve gotten to know each other, we dive deeper into your business or idea. If you already have a business, we’ll evaluate whether it fits our “boring ventures” philosophy. If you don’t have a specific idea yet but want to partner with us to incubate one, we take a slightly different approach. We’ll discuss the key questions: What’s your business about? Why now?

Due Diligence & Setup
After defining the broad framework, we dive into the details. We’ll clarify any remaining questions, conduct thorough research, and arrange additional calls with your team. If you have an existing business, we conduct a deep due diligence process, analyzing financials, operations, and other key areas. For new ventures, we focus on detailing the business strategy, financial model, and partnership terms. At the end of this process, we’ll have a clear understanding of the business and will make a joint GO or NO-GO decision on moving forward together.
