Community

Investing in communities, not just companies

We’re building a tight-knit, founder-first community that sparks bold conversations and big ideas. From our Jeffersonian Dinner Series to founder events in major tech hubs, we’ve turned our network of 50+ LPs, seasoned operators, and exited founders into the Northside founder advantage.
