Hummingbird: Beat Swifter, Fly Farther

Hello readers! Welcome to our very own newsletter at Hummingbird. We aim to use this space to share more about the founders we back, the areas we’re thinking about, and our view on where the world of technology is heading.

A bit about us:

We’re a global early-stage venture capital fund with over $500M in assets under management, with a focus on investing in exceptional founders. We’re an agile investor in entrepreneurial genius. We value emotional intelligence as much as data, growing internal culture as much as growing revenue, and forming strong, personal bonds with founders. Often the first institutional investor, we’ve helped start-ups scale from zero to category-defining multi-billion dollar businesses across 3 continents. We work best with outsiders who challenge industry boundaries and conventions, transforming tiny miracles into impactful companies.

What can you expect from becoming part of our community, you ask? Here’s a short, very non-extensive list:

• In-depth interviews with founders that have built billion dollar companies; their insights on hiring, culture, go-to-market strategy, and more.

• Perspectives on our latest portfolio companies and the rationale behind our partnership.

• Deep-dives where we share our thoughts on sectors, geographies and what excites us about them.

We look forward to sharing our thoughts and ideas with you. Hit subscribe if you’d like to come along for the ride!
