Las Olas Venture Capital

Las Olas Venture Capital (LOVC) is an early-stage investment firm based in Fort Lauderdale, dedicated to backing the next generation of enterprise tech founders. Founded in 2015 with over 70 years of combined operational experience, LOVC focuses exclusively on B2B software with $1–3M initial checks.

LOVC's founding partners Mark Volchek and Dean Hatton scaled HigherOne from zero to IPO, and their operator-turned-investor philosophy helps them win competitive deals, identify strong teams, and provide deep operational support through board seats and hands-on guidance.

With a low-frequency, high-conviction approach investing in fewer than 20 companies, LOVC leads rounds, takes board seats, and works closely with founders through the critical activities that lead to scaling product-market fit — including portfolio companies like OneRail, ReloQuest, and Letterhead.

Mission: We back the next generation of enterprise tech founders — former B2B founders investing $1–3M with deep operational support and a low-frequency, high-conviction approach.
