ValueStream Ventures

ValueStream Ventures is an early-stage, thesis-driven venture capital firm based in New York City, founded in 2013 by Greg Neufeld. The firm invests in B2B platforms built around high-value data, spanning fintech, data tech, enterprise technology, SaaS and data analytics, and its current thesis holds that the next era of software opportunity will come from using AI to model how the world works and building scalable applications on top of those models. ValueStream typically backs companies at the pre-seed and seed stages, focusing on the 'early growth' moment when a startup has some revenue and signs of product/market fit but is not yet a consensus bet, and concentrates on companies that have raised under $10 million in total capital, willing to lead. The firm's most recent fund is reported at around $16.2 million. ValueStream is led by General Partners Greg Neufeld, Karl Antle and Josh Elwell, who have worked together in the space since the firm's founding; Neufeld brings a background in asset management, enterprise sales and consumer web. Across roughly 76 investments the firm has produced one unicorn, one IPO and 17 acquisitions, with notable portfolio companies including the generative-AI enterprise platform Writer, a unicorn whose Series C in November 2024 was its most recent disclosed deal, the on-demand small-business insurer Thimble, and the research-recruitment platform User Interviews. By focusing on data-centric B2B platforms at the early-growth moment, ValueStream Ventures backs founders building the next generation of enterprise and AI-driven software.
