The firm was established by a trio of venture capital veterans: Mark Goldberg, formerly of Index Ventures; Ethan Kurzweil, who spent years at Bessemer; and Kristina Shen, previously with Andreessen Horowitz. By pooling their expertise from these major firms, the founders designed Chemistry to focus on early-stage investments, specifically targeting infrastructure, fintech, and developer tools.
Since its inception, the firm has built a portfolio that includes companies like Granola, Decagon, Persona, Serval, and Nova Intelligence. The rapid transition to a larger second fund suggests the founders’ strategy of leveraging their pedigree to secure high-growth startups is resonating with limited partners. Chemistry representatives have not provided further comment on the timeline for the final closing.
