SV Angel

SV Angel is a San Francisco–based venture capital and angel investment firm founded in 2009 by Ron Conway and David Lee. Initially focused on seed‑stage capital, it has evolved to include a growth equity fund while remaining founder‑centric and deeply networked in the tech ecosystem.

Over the years, SV Angel has backed transformative companies such as Facebook, Twitter, Airbnb, Pinterest, Snapchat, Dropbox, Reddit, Stripe, Slack, and more. In March 2022, the firm raised its first growth equity fund, valued at approximately US $269 million, marking an important strategic shift alongside its enduring seed‑stage operations. This new fund is led by Ashvin Bachireddy, while Beth Turner heads the seed fund, with Ron and Topher Conway serving as managing co‑directors. The firm supports founders long‑term, emphasizing support at key inflection points through its extensive venture network.

SV Angel is headquartered at 950 Mason Street, Suite 1299, San Francisco, CA 94108, USA. It invests primarily in early‑stage companies across technology sectors—including AI, consumer and enterprise software, fintech, cloud tech, and more—within the United States and globally. The firm is guided by a founder-first ethos and a mission to extend impact beyond business, also engaging with civic causes like racial justice, healthcare access, economic equity, and gun‑violence prevention, including support for The Giving Pledge and civic tech initiatives in San Francisco.
