WE INVEST IN THE WISE DEVELOPMENT OF TRANSFORMATIVE TECHNOLOGIES.

Sorry, your browser does not support video content.




OUR APPROACH

Lionheart Ventures is a venture capital firm focused on mitigating
civilizational risk. We do this by supporting the wise development of
transformative technologies.

Our main areas of investment focus are artificial intelligence and frontier
mental health technologies.

Leading academics estimate a 1-in-6 chance of human extinction by the year 2100,
largely driven by risks from emerging technologies. And now, with the
exponential growth of AI, predictions are getting worse.

Our startups are part of the solution.

We invest in exceptional, ethical founders who are developing transformative
technologies that have the potential to impact humanity on a meaningful scale,
while generating attractive returns for our LPs.

Our methodology


MENTAL HEALTH

The current mental health crisis impacts both our quality of life and our
ability to collectively make wise decisions for the future. We invest in
frontier technologies such as psychedelic medicine and neuromodulation that can
dramatically improve the standard of care available today. 



ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

The emergence of advanced AI will be more disruptive than the Industrial
Revolution. We are pioneering the category of AI safety investing – by carefully
deploying capital towards the development and alignment of advanced AI, we
contribute to ensuring that this transition goes well.


WHO WE ARE


WE'RE FOUNDERS

As former founders, our team has raised money from the world’s leading VCs and
built companies that have successfully exited. We understand the founder journey
from firsthand experience.


WE'RE SPECIALIZED

As a firm, we’ve narrowed our focus to only the sectors where we can have the
greatest impact – frontier mental health and transformative AI. Our network of
expert advisors support us in developing intimate understandings of these areas.


WE'RE PRINCIPLED

Guided by our values, we prioritize intellectual honesty, ethical conduct and
counterfactual impact. We aspire to lead conversations around how to responsibly
steward humanity’s most transformative technologies.


PORTFOLIO

We back formidable, ethical, growth-oriented founders addressing multi-billion
dollar markets.

Anthropic, founded by former members of OpenAI, specializes in developing
