Altos Ventures

Founded in 1996, Altos Ventures is a technology investment firm based in Silicon Valley. Through patient and pragmatic investing, Altos partners with early to growth stage technology companies operating in consumer and enterprise sectors, with the goal of building durable and compounding businesses over decades. We are privileged to invest on behalf of institutional investors, most with charitable, educational, or non-profit missions. Serving entrepreneurs is a calling for us, and we look to partner with companies with an equally strong sense of purpose. We prefer to partner with management with an ownership mentality – leaders with a vision for the future, creating value for all stakeholders, with an eye on the bottom line. We make initial investments in early-stage companies tackling emerging consumer and enterprise opportunities. We look to partner with management to build world-class businesses based on strong operating fundamentals and attractive unit economics. We look for opportunities to deepen our relationships with high-performing companies, and can make significant capital commitments more than a decade after our initial investment.
