Early-Stage Venture Capital Firms

159 early-stage venture capital firms in the US, the UK, the EU and Canada: most of their recorded deals in the last 24 months are early-stage, and they are ranked by those deals. The first 100 are listed here. A deal counts when someone on the firm’s investment team lists it on their own profile, so firms whose people list few of their deals show fewer than they made. Open a firm to see its investors on Gritt.

Questions about this list

By their early-stage deals in the last 24 months. A firm is listed when at least half of its deals with a known stage are early-stage (pre-seed to Series A), and at least five have a stage. Each firm’s row shows its investment team on Gritt, its deals, its main sectors and the month of its last deal.
From the public professional profiles of each firm’s investment team: the partners, principals, associates, analysts and investors who work there. A deal counts for the firm where the person held an investment role when they made it, once per portfolio company. Gritt only sees the deals people list on their own profiles, so some firms show fewer deals than they made. The lists are refreshed every month. Read the privacy policy
Venture capital firms, growth equity firms, corporate venture arms and public investors with at least 2 people of their investment team on Gritt and at least 5 recorded deals in the last 24 months. Private equity buyout firms, sovereign funds, accelerators and venture studios are not on these lists. Angel groups and syndicates are left out too.
Open the firm to see its investors on Gritt and the deals each of them made. On any paid plan, from €50 a month, you can copy their email addresses, or let Gritt write a personalised email to each one and send it from your own Gmail.
Yes. Browsing the firms, their investors and their deals is free. Email addresses, LinkedIn profiles and CSV export come with every paid plan.
