Our latest fund: Early Insight and Enduring Partnership

The rules of company-building are rewriting themselves in real time. AI has collapsed the distance between having an idea and scaling it, and the market is expanding to match. In the midst of that convergence, we believe the defining companies of the next decade are taking shape.

We've raised $5 billion in late-stage capital, reflecting our commitment to this shift. It builds on decades of early-stage insight and deep founder relationships to help scale the next era of entrepreneurship.

In our view, this market cycle represents the early phase of a broader transformation. We've seen big shifts before, and they tend to build on each other. But the momentum behind AI is entirely new. Markets are refreshing, opportunities are broadening, and the next decade will be one of the most meaningful in modern technology.

This moment also requires a discerning platform that can grow with founders. At Accel, the same teams that build conviction early stay with companies as they scale, ensuring consistency in judgment and support through every stage of growth. This is how we supported companies like Atlassian, CrowdStrike, Flipkart, and Slack from inception onward.

That experience positions us to work alongside today's builders, including companies like Lovable, Vercel, and Cyera, as they navigate this unprecedented moment.

Over four decades ago, Accel set out to be the first partner to exceptional teams everywhere. Today, the Accel family includes more than 800 companies globally across stages. As these companies scale, the late-stage vehicle ensures that our partnership only strengthens. We didn't buy our way into the late stage; our portfolio brought us here. This is for the breakouts, the winners, the generational stories.
