Investing, Mentoring, and Fueling the Future of Entrepreneurship

Team Ignite is an early-stage venture capital fund backing ambitious founders in B2B SaaS, Marketplaces, Fintech, and AI.

Founded by Brian Bell in 2020, Team Ignite has grown into a high-velocity fund that co-invests alongside and often before Y-Combinator, a16z, Sequoia, Greylock, 20VC, Techstars, and other top-tier firms.

Our team brings a blend of operating experience at Microsoft, AWS, and LinkedIn, paired with multiple startup exits. This gives us the strategic depth to support founders from first build to breakout scale.

We actively partner across core domains including Product, Growth, Talent, Go-To-Market, Fintech, and AI—helping founders navigate the hardest parts of company-building with firsthand insight and targeted support.

Startups in our portfolio are plugged into a community of thousands of LPs, operators, and mentors—a collective that offers not just capital, but time, intros, and executional expertise.

At Team Ignite, we believe venture capital should work like a team sport. And we’ve built the team to win.
