Their investment focus typically includes insurtech solutions addressing distribution challenges, underwriting innovation, claims optimization, and customer experience enhancement across various insurance lines.

The investment team at 1750 Ventures maintains an open approach to evaluating new opportunities, particularly favoring early to mid-stage companies with proven concepts ready for market expansion. They typically invest in seed through Series B rounds, providing not only financial support but also strategic guidance and industry connections. The firm's evaluation process places significant emphasis on how potential investments might complement or enhance existing insurance value chains, with particular interest in data analytics, artificial intelligence applications, digital platforms, and technologies that enable new insurance products or distribution models.
