At The VR Fund, we bring expert guidance and resources to promising and early stage VR, AR and MR startups. We seek innovative companies across a wide variety of sectors – from infrastructure and development tools to content and applications. We are eager to help entrepreneurs bring industry-defining technology to market faster, and to positively impact their growth path by providing the capital, insights and strategic relationships needed at this critical time.

The best way to predict the future is to build it, the second best way is to fund it. We believe in the transformative powers of this new medium and want to help make VR, AR, and MR happen in the best way possible.
