Fund IIIEarly-stage venture capital

Capital that compounds with conviction.

Helix Capital partners with exceptional founders building the infrastructure of the next decade — AI, climate, health, and the financial stack that powers them.

About the firm

A concentrated fund for generational companies.

We lead and co-lead pre-seed and seed rounds, writing first checks from $500k to $4M. Founded in 2019 by operators, we make fewer than 12 investments a year so every portfolio company gets a partner, not a portfolio slot.

Investment thesis

Three vectors, one conviction.

We back teams where deep technical edge meets a non-obvious go-to-market. The next decade will be won by companies that fuse breakthrough science with operational sophistication.

The modern financial stack

The next generation of APIs, risk systems, and consumer rails being written to replace a decades-old core.
