Battery Ventures
About
Battery Ventures is a global venture capital and private equity firm that has invested in technology companies since 1983. Listed in Boston’s Seaport, it backs founders at every stage, from early startups to established market leaders, across application software, infrastructure software, consumer, and industrial technology and life science tools. The firm describes itself as decisive, hard-working and thesis-driven, and it has invested in more than 450 companies.
Battery’s investment staff operates as a single global unit, and a portfolio-services group helps companies scale with expertise in recruiting and talent, marketing and communications, business development, go-to-market coaching, and finance and analytics. A bench of former operators advises CEOs on scaling, headcount and IT. In 2019 the firm created The Battery Foundation, a donor-advised fund at the Boston Foundation that gives grants for technology education, health, jobs and grassroots causes.
