Long Journey Ventures is not interested in AdTech, Functional SaaS, Consumer Electronics, Consumer Social, or Productivity. Their investment philosophy includes a commitment to long-term partnership with founders, which is encapsulated in their tagline, 'We go long with long-term people.' Key values for the firm include an appreciation for 'magically weird' details, aiming to work with founders who are outliers and bring unconventional ideas to the table. They want to embody the characteristics of a 'bubbe' - wise, protective, direct, and supportive of the founders they invest in. The team follows a 'Chaotic Good' character alignment from Dungeons & Dragons, prioritizing freedom, independence, and a fun approach to business. They take the stewardship of their Limited Partners' (LPs) capital very seriously, underscoring the importance of respecting the value of investment and looking to back founders who do the same. Long Journey Ventures employs a disciplined approach to investing, aiming to return significant value to their LPs, and seeks out founders who share this perspective on money and investment as a tool for enabling freedom and building wealth.
