About This Fund
Crosslink Ventures X, L.P. is the tenth flagship venture capital fund raised by Crosslink Capital, a Menlo Park-based early-stage investment firm founded in 1989. The fund closed on April 23, 2024 at its $350 million target, bringing Crosslink Capital's total assets under management across ten funds to approximately $4.6 billion. The fund represents the continuation of Crosslink's 35-year track record as a pre-seed through Series A investor partnering with ambitious founders building category-defining technology companies.
Crosslink Ventures X invests at the pre-seed, seed, and Series A stages with initial check sizes ranging from $1 million to $9 million, deploying $1–3 million at seed and $5–10 million at Series A, with reserves for follow-on investment. The fund's sector focus spans enterprise software and SaaS, consumer technology, vertical software platforms, financial technology, artificial intelligence and AI-first applications, healthcare IT, cybersecurity, and deep technology. Portfolio companies receive access to Alpha, Crosslink's invite-only network of more than 2,000 founders, CEOs, seed investors, and enterprise executives co-founded in 2005 by General Partner Eric Chin. Alpha hosts more than 40 annual forums, thematic dinners, and investor summits that provide Crosslink portfolio companies with peer-to-peer learning and business development opportunities uncommon in early-stage investing. The fund attracted commitments from both new and existing investors despite a challenging fundraising environment for early-stage vehicles in 2023–2024, reflecting confidence in Crosslink's disciplined check-size discipline and long-term LP relationships. Crosslink has generated 50+ exits including 17 IPOs across its fund history.
