Emergence partners with founders transforming the way the world works.
We're early experts in emerging business models. Every technology revolution unlocks new business models, and our edge is recognizing them early. Salesforce in 2003 was our contrarian bet on horizontal SaaS. Veeva, where we were the sole venture backer of its 2008 Series A, became the world’s largest vertical SaaS company. The AI era is unlocking a variety of new models, and we’re building early expertise across them, from AI infrastructure to physical world AI to AI-Native Services: companies that sell outcomes rather than software.
We go all in on every investment to bend the odds of success. Our Partners each make just one investment annually—a deliberate choice that lets us dive deep with every founder. When you work with us, you get the full team. Every Partner contributes to diligence and strategy, ensuring you benefit from our collective expertise and network.
We are built for enduring partnership. We've created something rare in venture: a firm with zero Partner turnover and a culture of developing talent from within. This means consistent, sustained support throughout your company's journey. Your dedicated team today will be your team tomorrow.
