Profile
This ability shows up in rare Founders. Those who think independently and creatively. Outsiders who never compromise their point of view, and never give up.
As Founders, we reinvented industries with this mindset.
As investors, our approach is no different – our goal is to transform how innovators are funded. We fund you first and we fund you fast. Then we help you get it right fast. Then we help you raise your next round at levels that are often embarrassingly high.
We bring the Founders we back exponential yet little-known techniques for network effects and growth. We make visible the typically unseen methods and give you unfair advantages.
Having built 10 companies with more than $10 billion in exits across multiple industries and geographies, we’re entrepreneur-first because we were entrepreneurs first.
And we’re determined to guard the backs of the next generation of fearless founders.

Cold-mailing a general inbox rarely reaches a partner, so Private Equity List also lists the investment-team contacts for NFX — names, roles, verified work emails and LinkedIn profiles — available on a Pro plan from $129/month (see pricing). Contacts are sourced from the firm's website and LinkedIn and re-verified on a rolling cycle. Spot a stale contact, or none at all? Report it — we re-run that firm within 48h and get back to you.
Can I access NFX data via API or MCP?
Yes. Every field on this page — profile, funds, investment criteria, portfolio and investment-team contacts — is available programmatically through the Private Equity List REST API and MCP server, so AI assistants such as Claude and ChatGPT can query NFX directly instead of scraping this page. One subscription covers both the web app and machine access — see API & MCP.
