Failup Ventures

Lerer Hippeau is an early-stage venture capital fund headquartered in New York. Lerer Hippeau was founded by Ken and Ben Lerrer, co-founders of the Huffington Post and Thrillist respectively, and the majority of our team consists of fellow startup founders and operators. We look to invest in entrepreneurs with product vision, consumer insight, focused execution, and unwavering ambition. Historically, we have invested primarily in early-stage companies based in New York (although we are not limited to NY), and almost exclusively headquartered in the United States.

We are focused on identifying exceptional founders leading high growth businesses. We then work with the founders and provide support for them, their team and their business. This is what sets us apart from the rest. We are one of the most active providers of early stage investments to startups in Australia. We provide more than just our capital to help the best founders build and grow amazing tech businesses that disrupt industries and change the world. Our portfolio of over 20 startups includes some of Australia's most exciting startups, including Airtasker, GO1 and Sendle.
