About

True Ventures is a US-based venture capital firm that helps entrepreneurs create products in markets that really don't yet exist. We are willing to take bets that others will not, and will invest at the Series A stage or earlier and back up our initial investment with follow-on capital. True Ventures sector focus shifts as the opportunity set moves: we are not fixated on any one particular sector. However, along with software and other soft technology, we have expertise and have invested in hardware, biotechnology / life sciences and deep tech. We believe in building community, taking bold risks, and supporting our companies throughout their entire lifecycles.
