Capital for
Audacious Founders

Intellectual progress is everywhere, but opportunity remains elusive for many. Audacity is not just a buzzword; it's an opportunity to challenge the status quo and level the playing field.

Audaz Capital seeks out startups that disrupt industries where opportunity disparities persist.

We are creating a seismic shift towards a more inclusive and equitable landscape that enhances economic prosperity for the entrepreneur, the region and the nation.

Strategically based in the Southwest

The Southwest is ripe for economic prosperity with major laboratories and research universities. It is a jewel of national value, ripe with talent and ideas.

Focusing on these industries

Disruption and economic prosperity can occur in any sector. Moreover, the regional attributes and natural marketplaces provide opportunities to build and grow capital-efficient startups in critical areas such as energy tech, water tech, and supply chain/logistics.
