Profile

Gigafund is a venture capital firm based in Austin, TX that focuses on investing in highly ambitious entrepreneurs with transformative visions. The firm was co-founded by Stephen Oskoui and Luke Nosek, both of whom bring significant experience from their past roles at Founders Fund and as early backers of significant companies like SpaceX. Gigafund is known for its philosophy of making long-term, concentrated investments in companies that have the potential to become global leaders over the next few decades.

Gigafund invests across all sectors, geographies, and stages, deviating from conventional industry focus to back entrepreneurs solving the world's substantial problems. While the firm does not restrict itself to specific sectors, it makes substantial investments in companies from sectors such as aerospace, AI, transportation, and energy. Notably, Gigafund has invested over $1 billion in SpaceX alone and has other significant investments in companies like The Boring Company, Last Energy, and Neuralink.

The firm's notable portfolio includes SpaceX - commercial launch market leader, Gauntlet AI - AI education platform, The Boring Company - tunneling and transportation, Last Energy - nuclear energy, and Neuralink - neurotechnology. Other investments include Cover - prefab housing, Sana Benefits - health insurance cost reduction, and Veryable - manufacturing labor marketplace.
