Overview

About Tykhe Ventures

Tykhe Ventures is a forward-thinking investment firm dedicated to supporting entrepreneurs who place artificial intelligence at the core of their technology solutions. The firm's mission is to back AI-first companies that are set to transform both consumer and business landscapes. The team brings over 15 years of experience building and investing in deep technology and emerging tech startups.

Investment philosophy

Writing checks is easy. The firm works alongside its founders in true partnership, rolling up its sleeves and jumping into the trenches with them. Active participation matters to the firm. It's better to be bold and early. Creating the future takes guts and courage, so the firm values bold founders who act on their insights and aims to partner with founders from the beginning. Technical details matter. The firm wants to know how a product works, whether it is design or functionality, and believes the most technical founders have the power to change the status quo.
