1955 Capital

About

1955 Capital is a leading venture capital firm that invests in companies developing advanced technologies that address the world's most pressing challenges in the areas of health and sustainability. Unlike most venture firms, we work intimately with entrepreneurs and innovators to build strong companies, accelerate technology commercialization, create jobs, foster global partnerships, and go after explosive end-markets. The firm was launched in 2016 by Andrew Chung, a former general partner at Khosla Ventures and investor at Lightspeed Ventures, who has rare experience and success investing in deep technology and breakthrough entrepreneurs. Our diverse and inclusive team combines strong domain expertise, operating experience, and a history of commercializing technologies around the world.
