Wave is a seed fund based in San Francisco, run by two equal partners and no staff. This is our firm, our startup. Our success is determined by the success of the companies we back.
Our portfolio is highly concentrated and selective – we only lead and make no more than four investments per year. We look for businesses with a clear mission that we would be excited to work on and most importantly, founders we would want to work for. The bar is high because we’ve worked for some of the best.
When we invest, we bring our respective operating backgrounds to each company we work with — having built teams at Airbnb, Dropbox and Facebook, we think we have a lot to offer. In addition to the role of investor, founders can think of us as members of the early team.
