Fidelity Ventures

Fidelity Ventures was a Boston, Massachusetts based venture capital arm of Fidelity Investments. Their investments came at all maturity stages of a company and were sector agnostic. In their investments, Fidelity Ventures sought to help their portfolio companies grow with their resources and relationship with parent company Fidelity Investments.
