Third Kind Venture Capital

We are Third Kind Venture Capital, a New York-based venture capital firm investing in early-stage technology companies. We look for entrepreneurs building companies with the potential to grow, and we provide capital and strategic guidance to support that work. Our investment interests include software, healthcare, and consumer technology, alongside companies in other technology and financial-services sectors.

Our name takes its cue from the idea of a close encounter of the third kind: actual contact with an alien. On our website, we put it simply: ‘We are searching for aliens.’ We invest in founders and emerging businesses rather than operating a consumer product or service ourselves. Founded in 2010, we have backed companies at early stages, including seed investments, across a varied portfolio.
