Frequently asked questions
What investment stages does The Venture Reality Fund target?
The fund concentrates on pre-seed and seed rounds, with selective Series A follow-ons when a portfolio company achieves a meaningful milestone such as developer-platform traction or headset-OEM partnership validation. The early-stage focus is structural, not opportunistic — it reflects the reality that much of the core IP in optics, haptics, and volumetric computing still emerges from technical founder teams without significant initial revenue.
Which sectors does the firm explicitly invest in and avoid?
The firm invests in augmented reality, virtual reality, mixed reality, and the underlying spatial computing infrastructure — including optical hardware, interaction design, avatar systems, volumetric capture, and immersive-content platforms. It explicitly does not invest in general enterprise SaaS, gaming studios without a spatial-first thesis, or mainstream mobile applications. The narrow mandate is the firm's defining structural feature and is maintained even during periods when adjacent sectors offer faster liquidity.
