Integrity. Authenticity. Creativity.

At Artifact Capital, we invest in diverse founders focused on driving bold systematic change.

Led by Melissa Breitenfeldt, our sole G.P., we’re a capital management firm of entrepreneurs still running the successful companies we founded. Based in Minnesota, we remain true to our down-to-earth roots paired with a strong work ethic—and are looking for founders who share our commitment to integrity, authenticity, and creativity.
With deep experience in starting and evolving products and businesses, we want to support leaders focused on transforming their industry.

We invest in ideas that will reduce complexity as well as diverse-led companies and leaders committed to sustainability. 

Our sweet spot is supporting founders and companies at the point of growing revenue to take their product from proof of concept to the next stage of funding or revenue. This growth edge—shifting from finalizing the product to generating revenue—is where we’re best positioned to help.

As expert problem solvers with 40+ years of combined experience in business management, product development, and design consulting, our team inherently loves partnering with bold founders to enhance their vision. We want to work with leaders who are going to change the landscape of our communities forever. Contact us to have a conversation about your capital needs tied to simplifying life through creative, design-driven solutions.
