Index Ventures is a venture capital firm based in London, San Francisco and Geneva, helping entrepreneurs turn bold ideas into transformative international businesses. 

Since 1996, we’ve partnered with exceptional entrepreneurs in Europe, the U.S. and Israel, who are using technology to reshape the world around us.   The companies they’ve started include Adyen, Deliveroo, Dropbox, Farfetch, King, Slack and Supercell.

Now that technology is part of everyone’s life and reconfiguring the traditional economy, sector by sector, we are no longer just “tech” investors. Indeed, we are convinced that every aspect of human life and economic activity can be transformed and improved by technology and entrepreneurial passion -- and that we are just at the start of this era. 

Index Partners cover every investment stage, from earliest seed through to explosive growth. We believe that opportunity is a mindset and we look for people who spot something others haven’t seen; something that they foresee can change the world and are committed to realising.

More than anything, we are passionate about building lifelong relationships with the entrepreneurs we work with, which is why they are our best reference.

Initialized Capital is a San Francisco-based early stage venture capital firm with over $500M in assets under management.

We're founders and builders who are here to help others like us build meaningful businesses. We focus on investing in high-potential software startups at seed stage and earlier, and are happy to be the first investors in early teams run by great engineers, designers and product founders. 

We've helped more founders build startups at the earliest possible stage than most anyone you'll meet, and that means we can help startups avoid the 1,000 landmines that can cause certain failure. It certainly won't guarantee success (as we all know there's no such thing in startups) but at the seed stage we've seen many cases where having the right investors will improve your chances significantly. 

In the end, we started this firm to help people like ourselves build companies that matter. A lot of great investors, advisors, founders, and friends have helped us along the way. We're just here to pay it forward.
