OneValley Ventures

OneValley Ventures is the investment arm of OneValley — the global entrepreneurship platform formerly known as NestGSV and GSVlabs — founded in 2010 and headquartered in San Mateo, California. OneValley operates a SaaS-enabled innovation-ecosystem platform for accelerators, incubators, universities, enterprises, and governments, and uses the dealflow and data generated across that network as a competitive edge for its venture arm. The OneValley Fund was launched with a target deployment of approximately $25 million. The firm writes initial checks at the pre-seed and seed stages, typically in the $100,000 to $500,000 range, with reserves for follow-on investment in top performers through Series A. OneValley Ventures focuses thematically on enterprise software, big data, digital health, and education and learning technology — themes closely aligned with OneValley's ecosystem customers and the broader digital transformation and AI adoption trends. The firm is led by Co-Founders and Managing Directors Juan Scarlett, who leads investment strategy and growth-stage execution, and Alec Stapp, who focuses on pre-seed and seed deployment in enterprise, data, digital health, and edtech. Across 16 disclosed investments, the portfolio includes Besty AI, which received the most recent disclosed new investment in August 2024; Ovation; Pump; Trueface; NovelEffect; BidOps; NuvoCargo; Deepbench; and NERv Technologies. Notable exits include Tueo Health, acquired by Apple, and Kylie.ai, acquired by Directly. OneValley Ventures benefits from a structural advantage over standalone seed funds: access to dealflow sourced from thousands of startups that engage with the OneValley platform, combined with distribution relationships at universities, enterprises, and governments that can serve as early customers for portfolio companies.
