Introducing the Vertical Software Collective

VSC: An Invite-Only Network for Top Vertical Founders & Operators

The Vertical Software Collective (VSC) is a network and center of excellence for vertical software operators. Founded and led by the team here at Euclid—the first-check VC for vSaaS—VSC began as 10 founder friends with a shared passion for the theme. Since then, the group has grown to 64 members nationwide, with vertical leaders from breakout startup CEOs to post-IPO founders. Having seen VSC in action for 12 months now, we're doubling down.

The VSC vision is big but simple: to connect and bring value to the best in vertical SaaS. Whether your interest is thought leadership, angel collaboration, mentorship, or just peer networking, VSC aims is to unite A-players—like you—across the vSaaS ecosystem. While most of you are already members, others receiving this email are leaders in the vertical world we respect highly. We hope you'll be interested in following VSC's progress and perhaps engaging down the road.

As vertical SaaS enters a golden age, there is no better time to unite the community. An essay Omar and I wrote last year, “An Era for Vertical Software,” speaks to the opportunity. The TLDR is that vertical SaaS is a distinct, enduring discipline that we believe is poised to dominate the software landscape over the next decade. Accordingly, its luminaries and best practices deserve a dedicated platform—a void we hope VSC can fill.
