BankTech Ventures

We are BankTech Ventures, a strategic investment fund built to strengthen the future of community banking. We source, invest in, and support bank-enabling technology companies that address the real operational and competitive needs of community banks. Our ecosystem brings together bankers, founders, and industry partners to accelerate adoption of solutions that materially improve how community banks operate and grow. We were formed in 2021 in response to a clear market gap. Community banks needed a more efficient and trusted way to access and evaluate emerging technologies. With more than $115MM in committed capital from over 100 community banks and strategic partners in our first fund, we set out to create a purpose-built investment platform dedicated to bank innovation. We go beyond capital. We combine deep banking expertise, collaborative validation with our limited partners, and rigorous diligence to guide founders toward true product-market fit. We focus on technologies that enhance customer experience, improve risk and compliance, strengthen data and analytics capabilities, and unlock automation and operational efficiency. Our team and General Partners come directly from the community banking ecosystem, including two of the country’s most innovative community banks. This structure gives us a unique vantage point into banks’ needs and allows us to support portfolio companies with strategic insight and distribution pathways that traditional venture funds cannot offer. With more than 24 portfolio companies and a growing pipeline of bank-focused innovators, we remain committed to a simple mission. Make community banks stronger, more competitive, and better equipped for the future.

Reed Semiconductor Corp.

REED Semiconductor was founded in 2019 by a group of power management semiconductor veterans. The team charter is to develop game changing technologies to enable leading edge solutions that will substantially shorten the power delivery paths and saving power while also shrinking both solution size and system costs. This is achieved by leveraging REED’s proprietary power devices, drive schemes and package technologies. Solutions REED Semiconductor is committed to providing leading edge Multiphase Controllers, Smart Power Stages and Point of Load solutions for the high-performance computing market. These solutions target the highest level of Robustness, Efficiency and Density while also being Eco-Friendly and supporting the environment. Robustness: Robustness is the first major consideration for your challenging power systems. REED Semiconductor solutions ensure power rails are fully protected under all fault conditions. Efficiency: Total cost of ownership is one of the top concerns in high performance computing systems. REED Semiconductor solutions leverages power devices, drive schemes and package technologies to minimize power losses from light load to heavy load. Eco-Friendly: REED Semiconductor is committed to supporting a Green planet with a fully lead-free and RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) compliant solution.
 Density: Preserving precious board real estate and reducing total system weight are both business and engineering challenges. REED Semiconductor redefined the power density limitations with proprietary power devices, control/drive schemes, conversion topologies and packaging technology.
