Audrey Capital

Matt Mullenweg, the founder of WordPress, created Audrey Capital as an angel investment and research company to support the growth of promising ideas. Its stated purpose is to back ventures at an early stage across a wide range of fields. The portfolio spans areas such as artificial intelligence and agents, biotechnology and gene therapy, genetic testing, oral-health products, consumer goods, media and entertainment, workplace and productivity tools, and several consumer brands, among other ventures, with some having since been acquired by larger companies or shut down. The firm's approach is to back founders across varied sectors rather than concentrate on one industry, reflecting Mullenweg's own background as a technology entrepreneur turned investor across many different kinds of businesses.
