VC Market Maps (Built By Jamesin Seidel)

My teammate Jamesin Seidel created a brilliant website called “Venture Market Maps.” This is the first ever repository for venture market maps (that I have seen). Want to know where VC funds are investing and why? Check it out! Additionally, she created a system for investors / founders to contribute! From Jamesin:

“In venture, market maps have emerged as THE visualization tool for funds to articulate research insights, publish frameworks they’ve been working on, and provide an inbound call to action to signal this is a space they are investing in.”

Featuring @a16z, @SapphireVC, @Redpoint, @sequoia, @lightspeedvp, and many more.
