Rock Maple Ventures
Investing in Tomorrow's Innovations
Who We Are
Rock Maple Ventures is a venture capital firm dedicated to supporting early-stage technology and healthcare companies. We believe in the power of innovation to drive progress and create lasting value. By partnering with visionary entrepreneurs, we provide the resources, expertise, and capital needed to transform ideas into successful, scalable businesses.
With offices in Boston and New York, we invest nationwide wherever promising technology and healthcare companies emerge.
Founded in 2001, Rock Maple Ventures was created to fill the gap left by other venture funds whose rapid expansion made it impractical to invest in low-capital intensive yet high-growth enterprises. In response, we chose to focus on opportunities to fund early-revenue businesses through periods of high growth and toward a profitable exit for all stakeholders.

At Rock Maple Ventures, we do more than provide funding—we empower our portfolio companies with strategic insights, industry connections, and hands-on support. Our mission is to help early-stage companies scale efficiently and reach their full market potential.
Software, AI, and digital transformation solutions that redefine industries and enhance efficiency.
Biotech, medical devices, and digital health platforms that improve patient outcomes and advance medical research.
Advanced materials, automation, and energy solutions that drive sustainable development and operational excellence.
