About
Lux Capital is a venture capital firm that invests in emerging science and technology ventures. Their mission is to back ambitious founders turning science fiction into reality, focusing on deep tech innovations. They position themselves as contrarian investors who support rebels at the frontiers of science and technology.
Lux Capital invests in deep technology and science-fiction-like ventures at the outermost edges of what is possible. The firm focuses on frontier technology sectors including AI, machine learning, robotics, aerospace, biotech, and advanced manufacturing. Lux backs counter-conventional, rebellious scientists and entrepreneurs from seed to growth stages, taking on significant technical risk to turn sci-fi into sci-fact. Their unique approach involves a deep-seated curiosity and a willingness to fund ambitious projects that others may deem too futuristic or complex.
The managing partners, Josh Wolfe and Peter Hebert, co-founded the firm over two decades ago, focusing on deep technology. The broader partnership team includes individuals with significant scientific, operational, and financial expertise, holding PhDs in fields like AI and possessing experience from leading organizations such as Google, DARPA, and USAID. Their collective expertise is centered on identifying and backing ventures at the intersection of science and technology, including AI, life sciences, and robotics.
