About

E14 Fund invests in scalable, deep-tech startups tackling big, meaningful missions.

Investment approach

Thesis
With our first fund in 2017, our second fund in 2020 and our third fund in 2023, E14 invests in MIT startups tackling big, meaningful challenges. These startups have some core, differentiated science or engineering that provides a sustainable advantage. Their business models are typically focused on selling products to enterprise customers. In other words, we focus on where we think the resources and relationships across the MIT ecosystem can be the most helpful.Source (opens in a new tab)
Reserves policy
For these core investments, we also set aside additional funds to continue supporting your startup in future rounds.
Eligibility
E14 Fund only invests in startups with key contributors from MIT, some spinning straight out of MIT, others with founders who left MIT decades ago.
Investing status notes
We’re with you from the beginning, investing from pre-seed to A.
