About Us

Our Story

Our journey from operations and engineering to VC.

Ventioneers is a play on words: “venture” and “pioneers,” founded by Mohamed Soliman and Felicia Parker, with their shared passion for innovation, entrepreneurship, and a drive to grow impactful businesses.

With Mohamed’s expertise in engineering, technology, and IP development and Felicia’s leadership in business strategy and operations, they united their diverse experiences to establish Ventioneers.

We believe the world’s most important problems will be solved by visionary founders, and we exist to help them scale with conviction, capital, and community.

What Sets Us Apart

We’ve been in the founder’s seat: navigating the highs, lows, and inflection points of building a company. That lived experience shapes how we show up for the startups we back. From launch to scale, we understand what it takes to grow, and we’re deeply engaged throughout that journey.

We take a hands-on approach, bringing operational depth, technical insight, and a strategic network that helps accelerate our portfolio companies. We focus on SaaS and deep-tech companies solving big problems in large markets, with traction, expansion potential, and a durable competitive edge.

Our community includes exited founders, venture capitalists, family offices, and experienced operators, people who know what it takes and are ready to support the next wave of category-defining companies.
