Note from Chaos Ventures

Distribution and GTM are core to early stage startups achieving product-market fit and scale. At Chaos Ventures we lean heavily on our deep GTM expert network to help locate and acquire GTM talent as well as open up distribution partnerships for our portcos. We believe that outsized and more sustainable venture outcomes can be produced by private equity ownership of businesses that can serve as customers for our technology portfolio. In turn, traditional cash flowing SMBs are continuing to go through a rapid technological transformation that creates an incredible opportunity and incentive to bring both asset classes together and drive a flywheel of growth.
