At Menlo Ventures, we go ALL IN. This isn’t just a motto, but how we show up everyday for the companies we back, the investors who back us, and each other. When we win, we win as a team. 47 Years 80+ Public Companies 165 + Mergers + Aquisitions $5B+ Under Management We focus on the "three stages of early" We are investors and company builders - we know what it takes to turn a budding idea into a scalable business. We work with early-stage founders to find product-market fit, develop go-to-market strategies, scale their organizations, and support them as they grow. Inception: Our Menlo Labs team helps founders validate early-stage ideas, de-risk opportunities, and build successful foundations. Venture: Our venture team provides series A and B startups with guidance and hands-on help as they build their teams and products. Inflection: Our inflection team supports early growth-stage startups during critical points as they prepare to scale. Our focus areas At every stage from inception through IPO, we invest in game-changing ideas that reinvent life and work. Although we remain open to new ventures within consumer, enterprise, and healthcare, we go deep in the following seven focus areas: AI: Generative AI is breaking into every software vertical, and winners in these markets will create massive economic and societal value. Menlo Ventures is placing bets on the most promising GenAI companies at the infrastructure and application layers, where we see immense potential for groundbreaking businesses that will reshape industries and push the boundaries of what we can achieve. Bio + Healthcare: Innovations at the intersection of advancements in technology and biology will drive major improvements in the quality of our health and the cost of healthcare. At Menlo, we invest at that intersection - backing breakthrough digital health companies (vertical SaaS and digital care) and novel life sciences companies (therapeutic platforms and transformative technologies). Consumer: The world we live in today is enhanced by technologies we might not have thought possible even 10 years ago. There is so much still to come. At Menlo, we invest in the game-changing companies of the future, those that will help us do things better, faster, or cheaper than we can today. Cloud Infrastructure: As enterprises continue migrating to the public cloud, a new generation of companies will write the playbook for the underlying infrastructure that powers their applications. These tools and platforms are built for and cater to the developer, optimized for time-to-integration with beautiful, easy-to-use UIs and APIs. Cybersecurity: In a complex, post-pandemic world, rapid cloud adoption and the proliferation of open-source software have dramatically expanded the attack surface for bad actors against enterprises, governments, and their applications. Additionally, the shift-left approach to software development requires developers to embrace a security-first mindset. As the cyber war continues, Menlo will back the best teams fighting on the frontlines. Fintech: Financial transactions and services power the global economy. Menlo invests in four fintech categories: dev-focused infrastructure and embedded finance (API layers), vertical banking, end-to-end financial services for consumers and SMBs, and tools that serve finance teams and the office of the CFO. SaaS: The shift to the cloud introduced an entirely new business model–Software-as-a-Service–and created unprecedented opportunities for enterprise software companies. Menlo divides the SaaS landscape into three categories, each with a distinct point of view that guides our investment, research, and resources: Departmental SaaS, Vertical SaaS, and Horizontal SaaS. Supply Chain + Automation: This once-in-a-generation reinvention/reinvigoration of the supply chain will create a world that is more efficient, resilient, and sustainable because of the operational efficiencies we gain. With an eye on a more functional future, Menlo invests in a broad range of technologies–robotics and industrial automation among them.
