Quake Capital Partners

Quake is a venture capital fund with offices in the U.S. and Europe.  Our growth continuity programs in Austin, Los Angeles, and New York City recruit teams from all around the world, and our newest facility in Cologne, Germany was formed with leading European partners including Deutsche Telekom and RTL. 

As a team, we look to build startup ecosystems and enhance innovation across multiple industry verticals and geographies.  We have a strong affinity for AdTech, AgTech, AR / VR, Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain, Cellular Communications (5G), Computer Vision, Cybersecurity, Energy, Esports, Healthtech, Infrastructure, SaaS, Social Media, Logistics, Machine Learning, Manufacturing, Marketplaces, MedTech, Robotics, and Transportation.  We serve all geographies, but we often seek value in underserved areas.

Our goal is to merge investment capital with intense hands-on training and leadership development. By building the right ecosystems we can rapidly accelerate pre-seed and seed stage companies, often producing 9 to 12 months’ worth of growth over the course of a three month growth program.  In terms of what we look for - we focus heavily on traction (50%), team (30%) and market opportunity (20%).
