DCVC

For 15 years, DCVC has backed brilliant entrepreneurs who address the hardest, highest-stakes problems in the world. We are deep tech venture capital, backing entrepreneurs using AI to unlock potential across sectors. DCVC and its portfolio companies are immersed in deep tech. Data Collective Founders and Managing Partners Matt Ocko and Zachary Bogue lead our franchise, which comprises 13 funds to date. DCVC backs entrepreneurs solving trillion-dollar problems to multiply the benefits of capitalism for everyone while reducing its costs. Our six flagship funds find, fund, and grow companies that use AI to enable entrepreneurs to tackle giant real-world problems cost effectively. In 2018, we established DCVC Bio, co-founded by its four Managing Partners Dr. John Hamer, Dr. Kiersten Stead, Matt, and Zack, focusing on computational biology and life sciences. Across funds and teams, we are obsessively focused on deep tech, and are open to the full breadth of its possibilities. We have one of the longest records of climate tech investment of any VC firm in the world, and we are committed to intensifying that effort until the existential problems surrounding the climate are solved. We have bold ambitions in human health: DCVC Bio backs companies devoted to curing now untreatable diseases and to feeding nutritiously and sustainably everyone on the planet. And we want to automate and transform dirty, dangerous industries where the demand for labor vastly outstrips the number of willing workers, because those are jobs humans don’t like and don’t want.
