Airbnb brought together some of the most talented and ambitious people from around the globe, who then built and scaled a very special company. Many of us were lucky enough to be early Airbnb employees, working through years of hyper-growth, across many disciplines. Now, in the spirit of being a host, we want to support ambitious new entrepreneurs as they embrace their new adventure. Companies we invest in get access to not just capital but also our wide breadth of experience and network. Our members are early Airbnb employees turned investors, entrepreneurs, and operators spread across the world. We have extensive backgrounds in engineering, product, growth, operations, brand, data science, marketplaces, international expansion, and policy. This expert network will supercharge the startups we back. We are global, ambitious, and ready to help.

Every day, hosts offer unique stays, experiences and services that make it possible for guests to connect with communities in a more authentic way.
