Micron Ventures

An early stage VC fund focused on investing in Israeli DeepTech and SpaceTech from concept to creation. WHAT DO WE INVEST IN We pursue moonshots driven by breakthrough innovations, seeking companies with core technologies and visionary entrepreneurs dedicated to building impactful, world-changing startups. OPTICS & PHOTONICS QUANTUM TECHNOLOGIES RF TECHNOLOGIES MATERIALS & CHEMISTRY COMPUTER SCIENCE & PROCESSING SEMI-CONDUCTORS ENGINEERING & ELECTRONICS HOW DO WE INVEST We work hand-in-hand with forward-thinking entrepreneurs, as early as the venture building stage, to develop pioneering Deep Tech companies. By utilizing our extensive expertise and resources, we expedite their path to success. WHY DO WE LIKE DEEPTECH The world is changing and growing more complex - the rise of AI, ever increasing climate challenges, the desire to move into an autonomous world, striving to reach the moon and stars - and existing infrastructure is not built to handle this complexity, necessitating a new generation of physical infrastructure which can break the physical barriers of today through cutting edge scientific innovation, enabling the applications of tomorrow.

The fund makes strategic investments in the areas of mobile platforms and infrastructures, semiconductors and enterprise solutions including compute, storage, and networking. We invest in early to mid-stage companies that are seeking to raise their first or subsequent rounds of strategic capital. Building Long-Term Value We focus on building long-term value for our portfolio companies. In addition to a financial investment, our firm provides deep technical and strategic guidance, access to leading edge engineering and manufacturing resources, as well as the brand value associated with a globally recognized mobile services provider. We define success by our ability to provide deep and lasting value to both our portfolio companies and SK Telecom. SKTVC pursues investment opportunities in Silicon Valley and beyond. We invest globally and lead or co-lead investment rounds, deploying capital through a single fund with $100M under management.

Governments can’t solve the problems alone; private capital will be needed to invest in disruptive technologies that are poised to accelerate solutions. Cerberus Ventures is a dedicated investment platform that backs pioneering advancements in critical technologies addressing these challenges. We invest from Seed to Series B across 6 verticals: Processing & Microelectronics, Energy Infrastructure, Networks & Communications, AI- Enabled Productivity, Synthetic & Programmable Biology, and Physical & Digital Assurance. Our team is led by a unique group of experienced investors from In-Q-Tel, Cerberus, and global technology firms.

Intel Capital is a division of Intel Corporation, set up to manage corporate venture capital, global investment, mergers and acquisitions.

Our portfolio boasts over 300 active patents covering world-changing innovations. We back the teams we believe are best able to deploy revolutionary technologies. We have board representation at over 80% of our portfolio companies. We're committed to working alongside our founders to commercialize scientific discovery. Our portfolio companies have collectively raised over two billion dollars. We invest across the life cycle of a company from pre-seed to pre-IPO. Our Name The name, Fine Structure Ventures®, is perhaps most meaningful to the scientist-entrepreneurs we partner with. In physics, the fine-structure constant, commonly denoted by α (the Greek letter alpha), is named for the spacing between the spectral lines in the fine structure of the hydrogen atom. It is a dimensionless, fundamental physical constant which describes the interaction between elementary charged particles, such as electrons, and an electromagnetic field. If the value of alpha were much different from the one we know, it would impact whether nuclear fusion within stars produces carbon or whether atoms can form stable molecules–both of which are critical for life. The fine structure constant is moreover the single best predicted constant in all of physics. Quantum electrodynamics, a field founded by Julian Schwinger, Richard Feynman, and Freeman Dyson, predict its value from first principles, and the associated experiments match to 11 digits. At Fine Structure Ventures, we are also making predictions to realize alpha, used in this context to represent excess return on investment. We take a first principles approach, looking for technologies that, if realized at scale, would have obvious, dramatic, global impact. While we only aspire to the brilliance of Dyson or Feynman, we nevertheless seek unprecedented accuracy in our evaluation of investment opportunities. A Rich Legacy Fine Structure Ventures is rooted in one of America’s great entrepreneurial success stories. Fidelity Investments was founded in 1946 and grew from a single mutual fund into one of the largest asset management firms in the world, with over $2 trillion under management. For the last fifty years, our independent venture capital group has had the privilege of backing other great entrepreneurs as they built ground-breaking companies, including Atari and MCI in the early days. A Focused Team of Specialists Although we are backed by a resourceful global platform, we are a small team passionate about the impact science can make and singularly focused on the success of the entrepreneurs we are privileged to work with. We bring together decades of experience in investments, operations, entrepreneurship, and in scientific research.
