Shine Capital

Shine is a venture capital firm that partners with relentless, creative, convincing entrepreneurs from the earliest stages of company building.

Shine is an entrepreneur-first firm. We partner with people who have the ability to bend the world to their will. We look for three core qualities in founders: relentlessness, creativity, and conviction. We back entrepreneurs who never quit, are extremely resourceful, and can inspire with their vision.

We embrace the frontier; we believe that technology can help push humanity forward. We invest from the earliest stages; we are not afraid to be your first check. We lead seed rounds and series A financings, and we continue to back our partner companies as they continue to perform. We currently manage approximately $435,000,000 across three funds; we invest with conviction and for scale.

We are a diverse team with varied experiences. We have partnered with startups, public companies, and everything in between. We have successfully navigated bull and bear markets. We always work with honesty and integrity.

We work together to be supportive and productive investors for our partner companies. We aim to be your first call when you need counsel or perspective, we bring our extensive networks to bear, and we help build world-class teams and go-to-market motions. We pride ourselves on providing leverage where and when it is most needed.
