We didn't want to make a big deal of Bloomberg Beta turning 11 today, but someone on the team... had other plans. Grateful for every year that passes getting to do this work.
About us
Bloomberg Beta is an early stage venture capital firm with $375M under management, capitalized solely by Bloomberg. The fund exists to expand Bloomberg’s horizons by investing in companies built by extraordinary founders that make business work better, with a focus on machine intelligence. We run our fund in unorthodox ways to build trust with founders: We're a corporate-backed fund that invests to make money. We experiment with the limits of transparency -- instead of a normal website, we open sourced our entire operating manual. We measure success by our founders' customer service ratings of us. Bloomberg Beta has an unconventional investing model where anyone on the team can say yes to a deal. The investing partnership has an equal female-to-male ratio.

Seeing both of our partners at Bloomberg Beta make Insider's top seed investors, just released this morning! Go James Cham and Karin Klein, two people whose shoulders push hard behind the founders we back. And see this profile on James as part of it -- he was #3 for the second year in a row. Love that they named the fact that returns founders earn go back to Bloomberg Philanthropies. Thank you Lukas Biewald, Shreya Rajpal, and Jeff Lawson for creating some of the opportunities for James to back great founders. https://lnkd.in/g9buCDiN

Here I thought for sure that James was the rainmaker, and I was the scholar. (Karin, no doubt, is the pragmatist.) https://lnkd.in/gjeHdTgp (Trying to figure how to best share despite their deserved paywall.)
