What we do here

We’ve been at the forefront of the evolving deep tech landscape since 2016 (and earlier for our founders!). It’s been important to us that we are transparent about our thoughts—both so we can help our stakeholders (investors and entrepreneurs) and be held accountable.

In 2024, we’ve moved to this platform to “build in public” and not just take viewpoints and positions on our newsletter but have a public archive of our thoughts on more timely matters. For an archive of more evergreen content, see our blog at https://creativeventures.vc/news-and-insights.

For more AI-specific content especially, consider visiting Weighty Thoughts, where one of our partners (James Wang) covers the topic extensively.

Why subscribe?

Follow our thoughts about the rapidly evolving startup and venture capital market, especially with “deep tech” which for us are many of the technologies that will define the next decade.
