Sometimes, the right capital helps a healthy business move faster on an opportunity that’s already working.

The question is whether accelerating now creates enough value to justify the cost, and whether the terms still support the founder's vision.

Good capital should move the business forward without losing sight of the founder’s goals.

AuditMiner needed capital to accelerate growth while building toward sustainable profitability.

Proven Ventures invested early, providing capital, connections, and support as the company scaled. As recurring revenue grew and the business became profitable, founders Kelly Mann and Jason Bogner were able to strategically reacquire a majority of Proven’s equity.

Growth created profitability. Profitability created more ownership. That’s the model at work.

The right capital starts with a clear plan.

What’s the business challenge? How much capital is needed? Where will it go? And what measurable result should it create?

For us, the founder remains at the center. They have the vision, make the decisions, and build the business. Capital should simply help move the plan forward.

HAPPENING NOW! Proven Ventures' Erica Wassinger leads the “How We’re Building This” panel for a real conversation about growth, capital, and what it actually takes to build a business.

Different industries. Different paths. But all represent the kind of Nebraska companies Proven Ventures was built to support: businesses with traction, room to grow, and founders ready for what’s next.

Thanks to the Hustle Conference team for bringing the right people together.

It’s always exciting to see Nebraska founders get more attention, and even better when we get to join the conversation.

Silicon Prairie News recently featured Proven Ventures and the remaining $1 million in Fund One that we’re looking to invest in Nebraska companies.

We’re especially interested in businesses that already have traction and are ready for that next push, whether that means adding capacity, growing sales, managing inventory, or simply having more working capital to keep moving.

If that sounds like where your company is right now, I’d love to connect.
