Pillar VC is a Boston-based seed stage investor, providing capital, connections and coaching to unstoppable founders. Since many years, we have been building startup companies. We have been both investors and investees. There have been many successes as well as failures. The traditional VC method was not working as we saw it. The word VC is a metaphor for an evil empire, the dark side. It refers to a lack of harmony between entrepreneurs and investors. The dark side of VC created an environment where trust was paramount that made us distrust those who we most needed. Pillar helps you fix that.
