About

About this list

This list covers venture firms in every region that have backed companies at seed. Some of the largest also invest at later stages, so check each profile for how often they write a first cheque.

Funds are ranked by estimated dry powder, largest first, with the name breaking ties. Dry powder is a firm-level estimate of capital raised but not yet invested, from licensed private-markets data, so treat it as a guide rather than a quote. Firms that also run buyout strategies are left out, because most of their dry powder is buyout capital. Cheque sizes are estimated from fund sizes.

What is this list based on?

This list covers venture firms in every region that have backed companies at seed. Some of the largest also invest at later stages, so check each profile for how often they write a first cheque.

How is dry powder estimated?

From the size and vintage of each manager's recent funds and how much of them is likely already invested. It is an estimate, best used to compare firms rather than as an exact figure.
