Tuesday Capital
Description
Tuesday Capital, an early-stage venture capital firm based in San Francisco, has established itself as a prominent investor in the technology landscape, particularly known for its origins as CrunchFund, founded by TechCrunch's Michael Arrington and Patrick Gallagher. The firm primarily focuses on Seed and Series A investments, seeking out visionary founders who are building the future, often from unconventional backgrounds. While sector-agnostic, their portfolio demonstrates a strong inclination towards enterprise software, fintech, consumer technology, and healthcare tech innovations.
The firm's investment strategy is characterized by its flexibility, as Tuesday Capital is prepared to either lead funding rounds or participate as part of a syndicate. They emphasize a partnership approach, aiming to be a supportive and engaged investor for their portfolio companies. This hands-on philosophy, combined with their keen eye for disruptive potential, has led them to back some of the most successful startups of the past decade in their formative stages, including early investments in companies like Uber, Airbnb, and Pinterest.
Tuesday Capital typically deploys initial checks ranging from $500,000 to $2 million, though they have the capacity to write larger checks, potentially up to $5 million, especially when taking a lead position in a round. Their latest fund, Tuesday Capital IV, closed at $100 million, providing them with substantial capital to continue their investment activities. With a history of participating in over 200 deals, Tuesday Capital remains an active and influential player in the early-stage venture ecosystem, consistently seeking out and nurturing the next generation of groundbreaking companies.
