Hyperlink Ventures – a new venture capital firm founded earlier this year and managed by three up-and-coming partners, Eli Cole, Sarosh Adi, and Piran Adi – recently announced closing its oversubscribed first fund at $32 million. The new fund will invest primarily in Series A and Series B stage companies, focusing on technology breakthroughs that help the world’s largest corporations and industries increase productivity through software.
As collaborative checks in larger funding rounds, Hyperlink has already co-invested alongside established firms in four portfolio companies, including San Francisco-based vertical software company Rad AI.
Hyperlink is backed by a group of 20 limited partners consisting of former successful startup founders and family offices across the US and Israel.
Hyperlink’s three founding partners have invested across the venture capital ecosystem together for over a decade and have been friends for even longer.
