About
Fly Ventures is a first-check VC backing founders everyone wants to meet but nobody dares to invest in. The founders we partner with tend to pursue problems that are technically hard, commercially non-trivial or often largely unmapped.
Investment approach

- Fly Ventures is a first-check VC backing founders everyone wants to meet but nobody dares to invest in. The founders we partner with tend to pursue problems that are technically hard, commercially non-trivial or still largely unmapped. They combine deep insight with the intensity and ambition to build an important company over many years.Source (opens in a new tab)
