About LDV Capital

Investing with the same thesis since founding in 2012 - LDV Capital is a thesis-driven early-stage venture fund investing in people building businesses powered by visual technology and artificial intelligence. A majority of the data our brains analyze is visual. Therefore, the majority of the data AI will analyze will also be visual, spanning the light and electromagnetic spectrums across all sectors.

We thrive on collaborating with deep tech teams that leverage computer vision, machine learning and artificial intelligence to analyze visual data.

We invest pre-inc, pre-seed and seed-stage teams across North America and Europe since 2012.

With our extensive inner circle of computer vision and artificial intelligence experts, serial entrepreneurs, technical advisors, growth hackers, marketers and more, we leverage our network to help our founders navigate the challenges of building businesses powered by visual technologies and AI.
