Blitzscaling Ventures

Blitzscaling Ventures is a venture fund that invests in growth-stage companies in markets where one winner takes most of the rewards. Its partner Chris Yeh co-wrote the book on blitzscaling and works directly with portfolio teams.

The fund avoids taking a governance role so that founders can talk openly about hard problems.
