BOSTON

BOSTON IS GROUND ZERO

Boston isn't just a city—it's a movement. At the intersection of genius and grit, this ecosystem pulses with the energy of breakthroughs waiting to happen. Home to a dense web of visionary founders, bold investors, and world-class labs/universities, Boston turns deep tech into deep impact. From AI to quantum, biotech to robotics, this is where moonshots take flight.

INVESTMENT APPROACH

OPEN SOURCE INVESTING

We're reimagining venture capital through an open source lens, creating a more collaborative, transparent, and impactful approach to deep tech investing.

RADICAL COLLABORATION

Open source projects are rooted in radical collaboration. In deep tech where the stakes are high and the problems complex, progress accelerates when investors, founders, and operators share knowledge, networks, and resources.

CO-CREATION

Instead of gatekeeping, we co-create. Instead of competing, we align around a shared mission: building a more resilient, accessible, and impactful deep tech ecosystem.

COLLECTIVE INTELLIGENCE

It's not just about capital—it's about collective intelligence. Together, we move faster, de-risk bolder ideas, and unlock the full potential of innovation for the world.

INVESTMENT THESIS

WHY DEEP TECH?

At venx, we believe that the most transformative technologies are rooted in the physical world, unconstrained by the edges of our screens. Like the visionary Founders who are driven to tackle our world's most pressing challenges, we are inspired by the opportunity to deliver extraordinary impact and outsized returns.

TRANSFORMATIVE IMPACT

venx focuses on technologies tackling fundamental global challenges—climate change, healthcare accessibility, sustainable energy, and food security—creating impact at unprecedented scale.

We believe the most valuable companies of the next decade will be those solving our biggest planetary problems.

VENTURE-SCALE RETURNS

Deep tech companies create defensible IP moats, unlock entirely new markets, and scale globally—driving the venture returns that our investors expect. In aggregate, deep tech investments have produced Unicorns at ~2x the rate of other venture investments, generating an average IRR of 26%. Historically, deep tech exits have surpassed $250M with roughly twice the frequency of SaaS, Fintech, and AI/ML companies.

ECOSYSTEM ADVANTAGE

venx leverages Boston's unique convergence of world-class institutions, talent, and capital to create an unrivaled investment platform—positioned at the center of innovation.

Our connections across MIT, Harvard, and Boston's innovation districts enable us to access proprietary deal flow and support our portfolio companies.
