Boston Tech Week is Almost Here!
Tech Week is coming to Boston May 26-31! With 80+ founding hosts representing the best of the city's tech ecosystem, the week is poised to be blockbuster Week Tech debut for BOS. We’re so proud to see our local founder and investor communities sparkle, showcasing all that makes Boston such a special place to be and build.
We'll be participating in events throughout the week, including the TBD Angels Happy Hour on May 28. (Managing Partner Melissa Withers is a TBD member). We’ve cleared the schedule for the week to try and take in as many events as possible, carving out time to meet with investors and companies that may be a good fit for the RevUp portfolio.
We have investments across the U.S. but Boston has long been our home base. Melissa started her career in Boston after wrapping up grad school at Northeastern (Go Huskies!), spending many years in Kendall Square at the Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research. For RevUp, investing in Boston is a no-brainer: no place has the convergence of science, tech and operational grit like BOS!

Since 2016, RevUp has used its pioneering, non-dilutive model to invest in strong operators building companies on the $1M–$10M growth curve. Our typical investment is $300–$400K, and we back teams with real traction, solid growth, and a clear path to profitability. More on how we invest can be found here.

How We Invest
We built RevUp to invest into B2B and B2C companies ascending the $1M-$10M growth curve. We know from experience — and from the stellar performance of our portfolio — that this curve can be conquered. But having the right resources and support along the way is critical to success.
RevUp combines non-dilutive investment with hands-on support to help companies build stronger, more scalable infrastructure for growth. Our goal? Give companies the best shot at success while preserving founder equity, optionality, and autonomy.
Our Model
We invest into B2B and B2C companies with revenue traction, a solid growth rate, and a strong team. Our companies are:
In market, selling, and ready to grow to $10-15M in revenue in the next few years.
Producing $500K - $3M in annual revenue.
On a path toward profitability. Burning isn't always bad, and there's nothing wrong with investing into growth. But getting your company to a place where you can hold your own is a good place to be.
Beyond this, we invest into companies with:
A strong leadership team with proven execution ability.
A product or service that the world wants and needs.
Diversity throughout. Since 2018, 70+% of RevUp investments have been into companies led by a woman or person of color.
Most importantly, we select for companies where we add unique and strategic value. If we don't, we aren't the right investor.
