The major challenges of our generation will be solved with technology

We help founders build the future

We invest early in technical teams reimagining major industries

We’re techie founders ourselves, with deep operating experience

We’ve started eight venture-backed startups — including AdSense (acq. by Google), Factual, Shift, PeoplePC & Scopely — taken two public and realized billions of dollars in exits. As founders, we were lucky to work with some great investors, and we want our founders to feel the same way.

Los Angeles is our backyard. While we make investments across the globe, the LA tech community is near to our heart. Our podcast, LA Venture, features conversations with local investors.
