About
GV (formerly Google Ventures) is the venture capital arm of Google (Alphabet, Inc.). GV has been investing in technology and biotechnology related companies in the life science, healthcare, artificial intelligence, robotics, transportation, cyber security, and agriculture sectors.
We have a world-class team of engineers, designers, physicians, scientists, marketers, and investors who work together to provide these startups exceptional support on the road to success. We help our companies interface with Google, providing unique access to the world's best technology and talent. That said, we operate as an independent venture firm that is focused on investment returns.
Today, GV has approximately $2.4bn in assets under management and looks to invest $500m per year in start ups. GV is separate to Capital G (formerly Google Capital), which invests in fewer, more mature ventures, with larger deal sizes.
