Lightspeed Venture Partners

Lightspeed Venture Partners is a global multi-stage venture capital firm that backs bold founders building disruptive companies from seed through Series F and beyond. Headquartered at 2200 Sand Hill Road in Menlo Park, California, the firm conducts its U.S., Europe, and Israel activities through Lightspeed Management Company, L.L.C., while India and Southeast Asia operations are handled by the affiliated but independent Lightspeed India Partners (per official legal and about pages). Founded in 2000, Lightspeed invests across enterprise, artificial intelligence, consumer, fintech, and healthcare, with notable portfolio companies including Anthropic, Snap, Netskope, Rubrik, Wiz, Navan, and others (per firm website). As of its Form ADV filing dated May 6, 2026, the adviser reports regulatory assets under management of $50,005,412,721 (per Form ADV). The firm’s philosophy emphasizes depth of commitment, relationships, and conviction, providing hands-on support to portfolio companies rather than remote capital provision (per lsvp.com). In December 2025 the firm closed more than $9 billion across multiple new vehicles, supporting AUM growth to the current level. Leadership comprises co-founders and a broad partner team focused on high-conviction, multi-stage investing globally.
