Battery Ventures

About

Battery Ventures is a global technology investment firm with four decades of operating history since its founding in 1983. The firm has deployed capital across more than 450 companies and maintains offices in the United States, Europe, and Israel, with additional operational reach through its portfolio support network.

The firm's investment thesis spans five principal technology domains: application software, infrastructure software, consumer technology, industrial technology, and life science tools. This diversification across software and hardware verticals positions the portfolio to capture value across multiple technology cycles and market conditions.

Battery's operational model emphasizes direct involvement in portfolio company performance. The investment staff functions as a globally integrated unit, providing specialized support in talent acquisition, business development, marketing and communications, and growth strategy. This hands-on approach to value creation distinguishes the firm's partnership model and extends beyond capital provision into operational improvement and strategic positioning for exit.
