Investment thesis

Heaventures positions itself as an active, hands-on early-stage investor that joins exceptional tech startups as a team member rather than a passive backer. Beyond providing capital, the firm commits its time, expertise and network, supporting founders from incorporation through to exit. It emphasizes a close, family-like relationship with the companies it backs, and plays a mentoring role by sharing startup-world experience to help drive growth. The firm frames strong investment outcomes as the product of deep commitment to the entrepreneurs it works with.

Cherubic Ventures

Cherubic Ventures is known for investing before a startup even launches or reaches product-market fit, often as the first institutional investor, while also setting aside half of its latest fund for follow-on support all the way through pre-IPO; it was also one of the first venture firms to operate as a solo general partner and has grown into one of the largest funds run that way. Founded by Matt Cheng, who previously built two companies that each reached over $1 billion in public market value, the firm was designed from the start to invest across both the U.S. and Asia, backing early breakout companies in places like Croatia, Bangladesh, Japan, and Taiwan in addition to the U.S., with its Taipei roots still central to its identity alongside its Silicon Valley presence.
