NextView Ventures

NextView Ventures is a seed-stage venture capital firm founded in 2010 by Rob Go, David Beisel, and Lee Hower, with offices in New York, Boston, and San Francisco. The firm invests in pre-seed and seed stage startups across North America, with initial checks ranging from $250K to $4M and reserves capital for follow-on rounds. NextView focuses on companies leveraging AI and software to address mass-market, everyday human problems. The firm operates as an equal partnership of five general partners, each of whom can independently lead investments; partners typically take board director or observer seats. The preferred path to engagement is a referral from someone in the NextView network, with a contact form available as an alternative. Fund VI (NextView Ventures VI, L.P.) began fundraising in February 2025 targeting up to $135M and was still open as of mid-2025.
