Bessemer Venture Partners

Bessemer Venture Partners is one of the oldest venture capital firms (founded 1911) with 150+ IPOs/deSPACs and 420+ portfolio companies across enterprise, consumer and healthcare, backing audacious entrepreneurs from early days through every growth stage. Operating with a decentralized culture where any partner can lead deals independently, the firm publicly shares investment memos and roadmaps while operating a thesis-driven investment strategy. Bessemer's contrarian bets on developer-first platforms and AI-native companies demonstrated predictive capability in major market shifts.
