Overview

What they do
IBM Ventures is IBM’s venture capital fund. We invest in early-stage enterprise software startups building innovative technologies for the enterprise. To us, that means investing in broad trends that are strategically relevant to the future of IBM, across AI, data, cybersecurity, quantum computing, and sustainability. We are doubling down on our vision of an open and trusted future for enterprise AI with our announcement of a USD 500 million Enterprise AI Venture Fund. While we’ll continue to invest in non-AI related industries, we wanted to underscore our commitment to accelerating AI technologies for the enterprise. At our core, we are laser-focused on investing in, partnering with, and helping build the next generation of great enterprise technology companies, in AI and beyond.
