Khosla Ventures

Khosla Ventures is a seed and later stage venture capital firm focused on technology-enabled companies with huge potential. Fundamentally, we are looking for 'black swan' ideas or a significantly better mousetrap. High impact innovation with significant upside. Big markets and short innovation cycles. At the seed stage we look for crazy ideas addressing well articulated problems. We look for companies with unfair advantages - be it science, IP, business-model innovation or a partnership. At later stages, we expect to see more progress. The problem the company is solving should now be clearly identifiable in one sentence. The market size and potential should be identified using bottom-up analysis. There should be a clear go-to-market strategy.
