Distributed Ventures backs bold founders innovating at the frontier of risk. From our latest $100M fund, we are investing in Seed and Series A rounds spanning Health, Wealth and Insurance. We bring deep subject matter expertise that both informs our investment theses and provides access to catalyze B2B go-to-market momentum for our portfolio companies.

We invest in remarkable entrepreneurs working at the intersection of healthcare and technology. We work with entrepreneurs at the earliest stages of launching and building a business - starting with thinking through the concepts that may yet become a company.

Messier 13 (or M13) is one of the brightest star clusters in the northern sky. It’s full of remarkable individual stars, but when those stars come together, they create something that’s truly greater than the sum of its parts—inspiring the M13 philosophy of “brighter together.” We’re proud that M13 has been awarded as a Built In Best Place to Work in both LA and NYC multiple years running.
