First Round Capital

First Round Capital First Round Capital is an early-stage venture capital firm. That's why we like to take an active role in the companies we invest in.

As seed-stage investors, we often provide a company's first outside capital – and typically invest alongside angel investors. Our typical initial investment in a company is around $500,000 – but we’ve gone both higher and lower. We're not afraid of investing in pre-revenue companies, and we understand the challenges of launching a new product. Time is a priceless resource for every entrepreneur,

so we try not to waste it. We operate as an entrepreneurial shop and make quick decisions: no investment committees, no months of negotiations. When we invest, we usually decide in days. First Round Capital invests nationally and has offices in San Francisco, New York and Philadelphia.
