First Round Capital X

First Round Capital X is the tenth flagship venture fund of First Round, focused on early-stage technology, AI, fintech, consumer, web3, and adjacent sectors. It aims to back visionary founding teams with differentiated insight into market opportunities. The fund’s strategy is hands-on: investing at seed and Series A stages, embedding operational support, recruiting, product & go-to-market growth, and leveraging First Round’s network and resources to accelerate scaling. The target fund size is USD 500 million, reflecting significant ambition and fundraising momentum. First Round X builds on the firm’s deep prior experience and brand to source high-potential deals and back breakout outcomes. While the primary focus is U.S.-based startups, the fund remains open to globally distributed or cross-border teams that align with its sector themes and market potential. The objective is differentiated returns via early-stage exposure backed by strong support and conviction.
