Green Meadow Ventures

Green Meadow Ventures

Green Meadow Ventures was founded in West Hollywood by Matthew Long, who transitioned into venture investing after experience as an operator. The firm targets pre-seed and seed-stage rounds, concentrating capital into a small number of startups each year to maintain high conviction and hands-on board engagement. Long's investment philosophy emphasizes close collaboration with founding teams during the earliest phases of company formation. The firm's strategy spans enterprise software, consumer internet platforms, and applied AI. Green Meadow Ventures participates primarily through direct equity rounds, often as a lead or co-lead investor, rather than committing to external venture funds. The geographic focus is coastal US tech hubs, with portfolio density in California and New York. Confirmed investments include seed-stage enterprise tools and consumer marketplace companies, though the firm's portfolio size remains deliberately compact. Green Meadow Ventures operates with a lean team structure centered on Long and select venture partners. The firm has not publicly disclosed total assets under management or aggregate deployment figures. Philanthropic or adjacent operating vehicles have not been formally announced. The office is located in West Hollywood, with no known additional offices. The firm's structural distinction lies in its founder-operator-led approach to early-stage venture. Rather than scaling into a multi-fund, multi-asset manager, Green Meadow Ventures maintains a highly concentrated portfolio model designed for board-level involvement in each company. This architecture prioritizes deep engagement over portfolio breadth, reflecting Long's original thesis that hands-on operating experience yields better selection and support for pre-product-market-fit startups.
