Overview
ARTA.vc is a $3M seed venture fund investing in US-based Applied AI startups across software, hardware, robotics, dual use and enterprise automation.
The fund is managed by two seasoned operator-founders — Anca Burke, a 20+ year operator and investor with deep experience across SaaS, AI, hardware, healthcare, and government innovation, former IBM, and active role as National Innovation Security Network member, and Andrey Mikhalchuk, a 25+ year technology veteran, multi-time CTO/COO, and recognized DC Tech Superconnector — both of whom co-founded the Station Alpha angel group and have collectively raised $40M for five related startups now valued at a combined $580M.
Operating under the tagline The Art of Aspiration, ARTA.vc writes checks of $100K–$250K at Seed, and Bridge stages, constructing a concentrated portfolio of approximately 12–15 companies. With a standard 2/20 fee structure and a 10-year fund life Arta.vc targets 5-7x gross MOIC to LPs. The fund's competitive edge is threefold:
- an operator-first lens that allows the GPs to evaluate execution risk with genuine founder empathy;
- an exceptionally wide proprietary deal flow network built through mentorship at Founder Institute, Halcyon Accelerator, Foundervine, as well as the communities they run including Funders Anonymous, Founder Speakeasy, DEFCOM and more, that surfaces 2,000+ startups annually;
- and a proprietary AI-powered platform for deal sourcing, due diligence, and portfolio monitoring that lets the team move faster and smarter than conventional funds.
ARTA.vc operates with full LP transparency, and focuses exclusively on ethical investments — backing the builders of Applied AI at the precise moment when the infrastructure layer is maturing and the application layer is just beginning to explode.
