Investment thesis
Launched in 2020, Goodyear Ventures initially backed startups making mobility more convenient, accessible, sustainable, efficient and safe. The firm is evolving its focus deeper into sustainability and material science, seeking startups developing breakthrough advanced-materials solutions evaluated across cost, performance, compliance, supply security and sustainability (CASES). Beyond capital, portfolio companies gain access to Goodyear's deep industry expertise, assets and global presence, with the firm aiming to support founders well past the financial investment while continuing to back its existing portfolio.
