OUR MISSION

Scient Ventures manages a North American seed stage fund focused on investing in dedicated entrepreneurs building consumer and enterprise technologies that create lifestyle efficiencies.

Our partners have been investing in early stage technology since 1996. We have made more than 100 investments and successfully exited more than 40 by way of IPO and M&A. We are now investing out of our 4th fund, which is our second fund dedicated exclusively to mobile and we’ve learned to follow our own advice. That’s why, in 2008, we became focused on the emergence of mobile as the computing platform of the future, which means we partner exclusively with entrepreneurs who see the promise and opportunity enabled by mobile computing to disrupt existing industries and create new markets.

We invest to outperform over time. We do not try to outperform all of the time.

We have a particular interest and depth in four key vertical markets (among others) that we believe are ripe for disruption with mobile. These include: healthcare, education, enterprise and the connected consumer.
