Rubicon Venture Capital

About The Fund

Rubicon Venture Capital is a venture capital firm that specializes in seed, early stage and later stage investments. The firm focuses on software and internet technology companies in North America, the UK, and Northern Europe, where they have developed extensive venture capital and business networks. Rubicon Venture Capital primarily operates in industry verticals such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, enterprise SaaS, big data, fintech, insurtech, cyber security, blockchain, mobile technology, marketing technology, hospitality technology, proptech, B2B, and B2C sectors, though it explicitly excludes sectors like healthcare, life science, cleantech, utilities, and other capital-intensive startups from its investment portfolio. As an investment firm, Rubicon Venture Capital typically invests in startups that have already achieved a minimum of $1 million ARR at the time of their first investment. Rubicon's investment practices include a unique fund plus sidecar model, which enables both Rubicon and its investors to participate in growth, secondary, and late-stage investment rounds up to an exit. The firm and its invested companies benefit from a diverse set of value-added limited partner (LP) investors comprising high-net-worth individuals, family offices, corporates, and institutional LPs located worldwide. Rubicon Venture Capital enables its LPs to co-invest with the fund through sidecar vehicles, offering LPs access to select late-stage investment opportunities and continued financial support for the portfolio companies. Founded in 2013 and based in San Francisco, California, Rubicon Venture Capital also operates out of New York. Rubicon's investment model seeks to deliver real value through its extensive global investor network and 18 Venture Partners across North America, Asia, and Europe. The firm hosts private events, bringing portfolio companies in direct contact with their value-added LPs. Rubicon Venture Capital is revolutionary in its approach, inspired by the historical significance of 'crossing the Rubicon,' and is committed to supporting the growth and success of paradigm-shifting enterprises.
