Thanks to inequality, the U.S. has potentially missed out on millions of inventors — what the researchers at MIT refer to as “lost Einsteins.”
Today there is a global misalignment
between talent and capital
* 62% of global venture capital is deployed in San Francisco, Beijing and London
Founder's Journey
Are you a technical founder trying to build a new startup?
Infrastructure Ventures is for you!
Our program helps technical founders set-up a company, provide startup support and access to capital.
We shorten the gap
between talent and capital
We find lost Einstein's through data analysis of over 100 million global developers and analyze their behavior for ‘build intent.’
Founders that are a fit join our
