I am so proud to announce the launch of DA8, another $300M we are putting to work into disruptive early-stage founders! 41 years in, and I love the job more every day. We relaunched @DraperVC 12 years ago. Since day one, we have continued to back founders who are willing to sound crazy. The ones who look at a broken industry, that hasn't been innovated on in 20+ years, and say, "I'm going to fix that, no matter what it takes." Over the history of Draper, we have been the first VC in companies like @Tesla, @SpaceX, Hotmail, @Twitch, @Skype, @Baidu_Inc., Bitcoin, @Coinbase, @Robinhood, @Oklo, @Polymarket, @XanaduAI, @iceye_global, @Colossal, and the list goes on. I remember the first time I met every one of those entrepreneurs, and the hundreds more we have funded over the years. At Draper, we look forward to funding more entrepreneurs who build unicorns and trinocorns (trillion dollar companies). What I've learned after four decades is simple. The greatest founders are those who feel that they have to do what they are doing. It was pre-ordained. Getting to help them and fund them early is the privilege of my work. To our new Limited Partners: we appreciate you for working with us on this important mission. We know it is only the boldest LP that sees the investment world as we do. To the founders coming to pitch us for DA8: we cannot wait to see the future you create. And to anyone building something the world isn't ready for yet, keep going. We are looking for you. Here's to DA8.(Tim Draper)
