EcoMap

Verticalized community software platforms

Real-time data & community engagement tools enabling people to understand and navigate ecosystems

Sourcing Story

Idea Fund Partners was first introduced to EcoMap thanks to the relationships the firm has built with UpSurge Baltimore, a TechStars backed accelerator. EcoMap was intriguing from the outset as it ticks all the boxes for IFP: a B2B SaaS solution using technical innovation in the form of a real-time data feed to modernize the dissemination of ecosystem information.

Conviction Points

Pava and Sherrod’s diverse yet complimentary skillsets, previous founding experience, and first-hand knowledge of the ecosystem space make them a powerful team to rethink community tools. In a sector of static, often outdated websites, this team is automating the delivery of relevant, real-time info.
