2024 USV Core Fund
We recently started investing out of our newest USV Core Fund. As with each of our previous funds, while it is a new vehicle, our approach will stay the same: small fund, thesis driven, high conviction, and low velocity. We’ll focus on being long term and dedicated partners to a small number of teams creating projects and businesses that are aligned with our thesis.

The purpose of our annual portfolio summit is simple: give 100 CEOs from around the world the space to connect and learn from each other. This year, we tried something new. We pulled 16 of them aside, paired them up, and turned on the cameras. No script. Just founder-to-founder conversation. We call the series Edge Cases.
Today, we’re releasing the first in this 8-part series. It’s a conversation between Ben Leventhal and Seth Goldstein. Two repeat founders who’ve been present for every major platform shift in the past two decades. We’ll be releasing a new one each Thursday for the next 7 weeks.
We know you will enjoy it!
You’ll find this video—and more to come—on our new YouTube channel. As a special treat we put together a playlist of greatest hits from the last 20 years. Subscribe to follow along. Or, if you’re feeling brave, run them through an LLM and tell us everything we’ve gotten wrong.
