Big Red Ventures (BRV) is an early-stage venture capital fund operated entirely by a team of MBA students and other Graduate Students at Cornell University. Founded in 2001, BRV is one of the oldest student-run venture funds. BRV typically invests up to $25,000 in U.S.-based high-growth companies across all industries. Initially funded by donations to Cornell University, BRV is a true evergreen fund, recycling all proceeds for reinvestment. Along with investing start-up capital in promising new companies, BRV also serves as the gateway to Cornell technologies by providing its investment partners unique access to new innovations.
