About Kansas City

Kansas City runs on a real, quantified track record most editions on this site cannot cite: LaunchKC, the city's flagship non-dilutive grant program, has funded 137 companies since 2015, helping attract more than $650 million in follow-on capital and create 1,640 jobs -- with more than two-thirds of recipients women- or minority-led. The real venture capital layer sits separately: KCRise Fund is the only traditional VC firm dedicated specifically to the KC region (managing $100M+), alongside Firebrand Ventures (Midwest life sciences) and Flyover Capital, whose own positioning -- "Partners for the Underestimated" -- names the same regional-overlooked thesis this site itself runs on. A real 14-county, bi-state metro (nine Missouri counties, five Kansas), anchored by Jackson County on the Missouri side.
