Core Values
Show Up As You Are
Founders come with greatness, but the Black Ops team brings tools to expand the capacity building with an ‘Operators first’ approach. We don’t believe in an archetype of a founder profile.
Planning is Key to success
We know that plans aren’t cement but without one, you are left to chaos. We plan to win.
Operators First Approach
The collective insights of our team give us an intrinsic advantage because we’ve been in the shoes of our founders. We believe this will give us more empathy to support our founders and their needs.
Founders Need Community
We treat our founders as community, we fight along side of them and earn the right to celebrate with them.
Thesis driven decisions
We believe our thesis will deliver a more impactful world of black founders that execute solutions uniquely and enhanced by their lived experiences. It is imperative that our investment decisions are led by our thesis.
Inclusive practices always
We believe in companies that believe in celebrating differences and building inclusive and respectful workplaces.
