Race Capital is an early stage venture capital firm focused on investing in exceptional founders who are building market-transforming companies in the data, enterprise, infrastructure, and fintech sectors.

Race Capital is embarking on an ambitious and leadership role to reshape the early stage venture industry. We want to reinvent how venture should work with founders, in Web 2 and Web3.
