About 8VC

At 8VC, we partner with elite founders to build transformational technologies that create long-term economic and societal value. We are investors who never stopped being engineers, operators, policymakers, philosophers, and entrepreneurs. We are equally fervent realists and optimists, with an irreverence for convention and a reverence for wisdom. As investors, we like to start with two questions: ▪ What is possible now that wasn’t five years ago? ▪ How can these breakthroughs create the most economic and societal value? The world is broken. Let’s fix it. This is open-ended by design. There are myriad ways we can contribute to a better world, from saving lives to improving them. We support company missions as diverse as safer bone marrow transplants, zero-emission aircraft, enforcement of privacy laws, and rapid tunneling for less congested cities.
