Spark Capital
About Spark Capital
We are Spark Capital, investors in products we love by creators we admire, including Affirm, Anthropic, Carta, Cruise, Discord, Oculus, Plaid, Postmates, Slack, Twitter, and Wayfair. We know there are no playbooks or formulas for success and are here to help founders win their own way. We invest across all sectors and stages, and work out of San Francisco, Boston, and New York City.
We Know
There are no playbooks or rulebooks or formulas. Your culture is your company. It’s not about us. Nobody runs your company like you. Listening works. Products can make markets. Pattern-matching is for non-believers. Pitch decks aren’t everything. There’s no single right way to do this, but there are some pretty wrong ones.
We Invest
In ambition, brains, guts, people, crazy dreams, idealists, optimism, resolve, independence, reinvention, action, systems, clarity and complexity, distinction, counterpoint, art, humanness.
We Love
Ideas, the future, the edge of the frontier. Science. Truth and the search for it. Rhythms, symmetries, structures. Rhizomes and parsimony. Glory and doing good. The ups and downs and twists and turns of the decade-long journey.
We ARE
Here to do this with you.
