Faraday Venture Partners

Valia is an early-stage venture capital firm with offices in New York, San Francisco and London. Fund StrategiesPre-Seed Fund: Investing $50,000 - $250,000 first checks in strong teams at the formation stages of company building. Nothing is too early for this fund - be it pre-revenue, pre-product, or even pre-pitch deck, we’re comfortable making bold early investments in standout teams. Early-Stage Fund: Investing $250,000 - $1,000,000 first checks in Seed and Series A rounds. We reserve follow-on capital, so we’re continuing to back founders as their businesses grow. This fund makes new investments, in addition to follow-on investments from our Pre-Seed Fund. Opportunity Fund: Investing larger checks in mature companies (Series B onwards) and companies that aren’t suited to the traditional venture capital fund model. Through the Opportunity Fund, we also continue to support our breakout portfolio companies from our Pre-Seed and Early-Stage funds when they raise follow-on rounds. Investment ApproachBold: Big ideas don’t scare us - to the contrary, we’re energized by investing early in founders with huge visions. That’s why we start investing at Pre-Seed, Seed, and Series A - and continue to support companies as their ideas shift and grow. Generalist: Tomorrow’s most iconic companies will defy categorization and create sectors of their own - that’s why we stay open-minded in our approach and are getting behind founding teams building at the edge of more than one category. Multi-Stage: We’re investing in our portfolio companies across their lifecycle. Our three sequential funds are designed to make Valia a long-term partner to founders as their funding needs expand. FAQsDo you invest in companies outside of the US? Yes - although the majority of our portfolio is based in the US, we are actively looking at investments in Europe and emerging markets. Great founders exist globally, and we want to work with them regardless of their geography. When is the best time to reach out to you? As early as possible. How long is your investment process? In early-stage rounds, we aim to go from the first meeting to investment decision in two weeks. There are scenarios where we move much faster, but we believe in the importance of diligence as we’re committing to being a long-term partner to our founders. How should I get in touch? We love referrals from those we trust, but you can also reach out to our team directly and know that we do our best to review every opportunity that comes our way.
