How to Use This Directory
For Founders
Identify investors whose stage focus and thesis align with your company. Check their portfolio for potential conflicts or synergies. Warm introductions through shared portfolio companies yield the highest response rates.
For Investors
Track the competitive landscape and co-investment opportunities. Use the deal size trends to calibrate round expectations. Corporate VCs often seek strategic co-investors for follow-on rounds.
For Analysts
Monitor capital flows across the space economy. The annual investment timeline and deal size data provide benchmarks for market reports and investment memos.
Data compiled from public filings, press releases, and industry reports. AUM figures are approximate and may reflect total firm assets, not space-specific allocations.
