## About DV

Enterprise AI adoption will only scale as fast as the infrastructure allows. DV was founded to advocate, collaborate, help, and invest in founders accelerating the enterprise into the next frontier of AI.

The AI hype cycle will come and go, but the winners will be the builders solving unglamorous problems in latency, reliability, scalability, interoperability, and trust. We invest in technical founders who see around corners — engineers who’ve wrestled with bottlenecks firsthand and are obsessed with removing them.

We’re not here to micromanage your roadmap or chase vanity trends. Our value comes from decades of operating and investing in AI infrastructure. With a deep first-degree enterprise network, we will open doors to customers, acquirers, capital, and talent when it matters most to you.
