Who we are
About Us
Elevate is a private membership network for investors, executives, and founders. Members get access to vetted investment opportunities, curated events, and an AI agent that makes introductions across the network.
Every member is screened. Every deal is reviewed before it reaches you. The network is small by design, because the value of the network depends on who’s in it.
Membership includes eight events per year: Circles, where founders pitch directly to the membership, and Soirées, smaller gatherings built for the conversations that don’t happen in a conference room. Investment opportunities come through as direct deals or SPVs, reviewed by our venture partners before they’re shared. And Ellie, our AI intro agent, works the network between events, learning what you’re looking for and making the introductions that move things forward.
Admission is by application only.
Our AI agent
Meet Ellie
Ellie is an AI-powered intro agent built to grow your professional network, without the friction.
Tell Ellie who you want to meet. She learns your background, your goals, and your intro areas, then gets to work sourcing the right connections from across her network: investors, executives, VCs, and angels. She makes the introduction on your behalf, via phone call, text, or email, with enough context that it actually lands.
What Ellie does
Personalized Introductions
Ellie learns your intro areas — the kinds of people you want to meet, the deals you’re working on, the relationships that would move the needle. She surfaces the right matches and makes the intro on your behalf.
Multi-Channel Outreach
Ellie can introduce you via phone call, text message, or email — however it’s most natural for you and the other person.
Always On
Ellie works before and after events so your network keeps growing between gatherings. You don’t have to remember to follow up. She does it for you.
How to get access
Ellie is by invitation only.
After your first call with Ellie, you’ll be evaluated by our membership team for consideration. If accepted, you’ll be onboarded and she’ll get to work.
Access to Ellie is one of the most exclusive parts of the Elevate membership — because the introductions she makes are only as valuable as the network behind them.
