At Felicis, we back founders with the courage to build before success is obvious. Felicis means “fortunate” and while there’s a tremendous amount of luck involved in building a market-defining company, we believe luck is something you engineer through courage, imagination, and decisive action. In the early days, founders need a trusted partner who shares their conviction (ahead of traction or validation) and can give them exactly what they need to accelerate their growth curve. We move fast and commit early. We always vote our shares alongside founders. Beyond capital, we invest 1% on top of every first check to support founders’ performance. Since our founding in 2006, we’ve raised 10 funds and have more than $4.1B AUM. Felicis-backed founders have built 50+ $1B+ companies, achieved 125+ exits, and generated $285B+ in market value, including Shopify, Adyen, Credit Karma, Cruise, Twitch, Plaid, Ginkgo Bioworks, Guardant Health, Meraki, and Ring. Active portfolio includes Canva, Crusoe, Arena, Mercor, n8n, Notion, Runway, Revel, Skild AI, Supabase, Tines, and Semgrep.
