Austin Ventures

“For more than twenty years, Austin Ventures has successfully partnered with visionary entrepreneurs and startup executives to build category-defining technology companies. We focus on seed and rapid growth opportunities in enterprise application, Internet, and infrastructure software; datacenter and communications systems; and semiconductors and components.

Our venture capital team typically becomes involved early in a company’s development. The majority of our initial investments occur prior to product availability. Our investments range in size from $100,000 proof-of-concept projects to $20 million expansion capital rounds.

We maintain a rigorous investment process and a commitment to work closely with our portfolio companies. We understand that promising companies need more than financial backing to succeed. As a partner, Austin Ventures provides emerging technology companies with a long-term investment approach, a proven ability to build value at the early stage, affiliate fund support, and access to an unparalleled network of executives, capital sources, and technology professionals. We also work with a specialized affiliate fund focused on early-stage medical technology, healthcare services and healthcare IT companies to explore further opportunities.” (Source: Austin Ventures’ website)
