Steve Jurvetson

Founder and Managing Director, Future Ventures

About

Steve Jurvetson builds his investing career around things we've never seen before but adjacent to what he knows, explicitly seeking companies unlike anything he's seen yet close enough to his prior domains, turning process learning into his core edge rather than a fixed sector thesis. He runs Future Ventures as an intentionally small two-partner firm with a 15-year fund structure designed for patient capital, focusing on deep-tech, mission-driven companies while deliberately avoiding business models that exploit human weaknesses like gambling or addiction.
