John Coogan Explaining Fusion

“We invest in smart people solving difficult problems, often difficult scientific or engineering problems.”

Investors

Founders Fund

Founders Fund believes the shift away from transformative ventures has weakened venture capital as a force for true innovation. They reject the notion that all technological avenues have been exhausted; the internet, for instance, remains vastly untapped beyond its current applications.

Looking ahead, they see immense potential in areas like aerospace, biotechnology, advanced machines and software, energy, and the continued evolution of the internet. These sectors hold promise for groundbreaking advancements that can redefine industries and create lasting value.

Their approach emphasizes backing visionary founders pursuing ambitious, technically challenging goals. We reject complacency and seek opportunities where others see obstacles, aiming not just for financial success, but for transformative impact.
