Whipsmart Ventures

Track Record

Building, backing, and scaling category-defining companies

Before Whipsmart, we built, ran, and invested in companies that defined their categories. A $6.3 billion exit. Thirteen years inside Google’s space and connectivity bets. The world’s largest radar-satellite constellation, and the first data center headed for the Moon. The operating and investing experience below is what we now bring to every founder we partner with.
