About

Atelier Ventures, founded by Li Jin, is an early-stage venture capital firm focused on the "Passion Economy," a concept that promotes enabling individuals to monetize their unique talents, creativity, and knowledge. This shift reflects the growing trend of people transitioning away from traditional employment toward independent work that aligns with their personal passions. Li Jin, who previously worked at Andreessen Horowitz, launched Atelier Ventures to fund companies that help democratize access to entrepreneurship. The firm’s investment thesis revolves around empowering creators by providing them with the tools, platforms, and resources to turn their individuality into income. Atelier Ventures supports startups building solutions that reduce the barriers to entry for entrepreneurship, including fintech platforms, SaaS tools, and educational services. These platforms facilitate the creation, distribution, and monetization of content, whether through podcasting, e-commerce, or other creative fields. Atelier Ventures focuses on businesses that promote independence while fostering community and collaboration among creators. Atelier’s portfolio includes companies that are reshaping the future of work by making it easier for creators to build and scale businesses. The firm envisions a future where creators, freelancers, and solopreneurs can collaborate in trusted networks and thrive in the digital age. This vision aligns with Li Jin's mission to support founders who challenge the status quo and create new, fulfilling work opportunities in the evolving digital landscape.
