Austin Ventures provides emerging and expansion-stage technology companies with a long-term investment approach, a proven ability to build value in the early stages, and access to an unparalleled network of executives, capital sources, and technology professionals. Although we invest at all phases of a company’s life, much of our investment activity occurs at the early stages, and certainly no investment opportunity is "too early" for our consideration. AV also funds larger, more established ventures, providing growth capital to expand operations, enter new markets, or finance acquisitions. In making both types of investments, we aim to partner with proven entrepreneurs who have deep domain experience.
