At Fourth Realm, we believe that the way people will be engaging with their day-to-day worlds will look dramatically different in the coming decade. Best practices and cultural norms from the 2000s and 2010s are already crumbling and we see the fabric of life changing dramatically.
To that end, we invest broadly across deep tech, enterprise and consumer and are actively contemplating these four pillars:
- Content: empowering creators by enabling them to create the best new types of content, authentically engage their audiences across all channels, and monetize as a natural extension of their brands.
- Commerce: commerce is ever changing - from B2B marketplaces to the way consumers shop for products online, we realize that commerce opportunities exist at each point in the purchasing journey for any type of buyer
- Community: products that foster a sense of connectivity, whether it’s B2B or B2C. Customers want a sense of belonging and to be part of something greater than themselves. We often see product led growth as a key characteristic of these companies since they scale up more quickly and efficiently
- Productivity: the future of the work, products that free humans from tedious and monotonous tasks, and improve outcomes industries that are traditionally underserved by legacy software providers (logistics, insurance, healthcare, etc.)
Fourth Realm will invest in any geography and is sector agnostic. Our team has worked institutionally at some of the best performing VC funds including Anthos, GGV Capital, Hone, Norwest, Openview, Plug & Play and in product roles at top startups including Carta & Mapbox. We invest with strong conviction and conduct regular deep dives to build our investment thesis across sectors of interest. Additionally, we get consistent deal flow from our relationships with top funds, founders in our portfolio, and a growing global network of highly skilled scouts.
We have co-invested with or have been followed on by Tier 1 Venture Capital firms including Point 72, 8VC, Kleiner Perkins, Floodgate, SignalFire, Maveron, Neo, Tribe Capital, NFX, and more.
