Moore Venture Partners is a traditional venture capital firm investing in early, growth, and expansion-stage technology and life science companies. The firm sources deals from a network of trusted relationships in geographic markets throughout the United States that are typically underserved by venture capital — with a particular emphasis on San Diego and Southern California — and screens companies by quality, stage, and sector. MVP reviews over 500 companies annually but maintains a disciplined approach, investing in only four to five promising startups each year, backing audacious founders building category-defining companies that can positively impact millions of lives. Once committed, MVP helps founders organize their investment syndicate with top institutional funds and corporate investment partners.
