MVP Ventures

MVP Ventures is an early-stage venture capital firm founded in 2020 and headquartered in Menlo Park, California. The firm invests as the second-largest check into early-stage teams building differentiated and defensible technology at the intersection of AI, hardware, and software. Rather than leading rounds, MVP positions itself as a high-engagement co-investor, with nearly half its team dedicated to post-investment value creation across go-to-market, talent, government relations, and capital markets. Fund I closed at $35 million; Fund II closed in November 2025 at $125 million, bringing total AUM to over $300 million and placing the firm in the top 5% of early-stage venture funds by TVPI in its vintage. Across both funds, MVP has backed 75+ companies including Anduril, Saronic, Stoke Space, Gecko Robotics, Loft Orbital, and Collaborative Robotics, alongside lead investors such as Sequoia, Andreessen Horowitz, and General Catalyst. The firm uses a proprietary data-driven sourcing engine and often engages founders before their first institutional round.
