About Databricks Ventures

Databricks Ventures is investing in the future of data, analytics, and AI. Databricks Ventures invests in innovative companies that share our view of the future for data, analytics, and AI. Our focus is on supporting early- and growth-stage companies that are empowering AI in innovative ways on top of or alongside the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform. These companies share our vision for an open ecosystem and our commitment to harnessing the power of data intelligence to create the next generation of data and AI-powered companies. We invest in early through growth-stage private companies within the data, analytics, and AI ecosystem. No, we do not lead rounds. Our strategy is to invest alongside a lead institutional investor. Databricks Ventures takes minority positions in rounds led by institutional VCs; typical check size varies based on the stage of the company and the size of the funding round. Databricks does not plan to take board seats in portfolio companies.
