Description
Samsung Next invests in founders pursuing groundbreaking technologies across four key sectors: Artificial Intelligence & Intelligent Machines, Healthtech, Consumer Services, and Frontier Technology. The firm invests across all stages with check sizes ranging from $50K to $25MM, typically acting as a minority, non-lead investor in funding rounds, and prioritizes a streamlined process without investment committee meetings. Follow-on investments are driven by clear commercial opportunity rather than strict pro rata participation.
As part of Samsung, Next positions itself as a strategic guide for startups, providing honest guidance and navigating Samsung's extensive ecosystem on behalf of founders. The team, based at a hub in Mountain View, CA, describes itself as nimble and curious, with a culture centered on caring deeply about founders and colleagues, embracing diverse perspectives, and driving toward shared goals.Technology & Skills
