Company profile
researched Aug 2026Team8 is a venture-creation and venture-capital fund that builds and invests in companies across four domains: cybersecurity, software infrastructure, fintech and digital health. The firm states that it also pursues opportunities at the intersections of these domains.
The firm operates two distinct models. Under venture creation, Team8 works with founders from the idea stage, helping define the problem being addressed and the path to building a company. Under venture capital, it provides capital alongside operational, financial and commercial support, including introductions through its network. Team8 also runs a "ProFounders" program for founders and maintains a "Team8 village" community structured around its digital health, fintech and cybersecurity domains, through which companies can validate ideas and products via partnerships.
Business model
Team8 combines venture creation, in which it co-builds companies with founders from inception, with venture capital investment in externally founded companies. Beyond capital, it offers domain expertise, operational and financial guidance, and access to its network.
