About

Romulus helps build the next great businesses from the ground up.

Romulus Capital is an early-stage venture capital fund founded out of MIT in 2008 with an emphasis on building, not betting on, technology and science-enabled companies. Our entrepreneurial genesis as a scrappy dorm room startup keeps us hungry, hands-on and resonates with startups looking for a true partner in their business. We mainly focus on leading Seed & Series A rounds for B2B companies within two categories:

  • Companies selling technology to solve real problems in large traditional industries (e.g., agriculture, construction, energy, retail, real estate).

  • Deep technology companies that have spun out of top-tier research groups (e.g., MIT, Harvard, Cambridge, Stanford, SRI, Draper).

What We Believe

We believe in audacity, creativity, and authenticity–in our work, in our investments, and in our relationships. We take an engineering-minded approach to crafting the future; testing and measuring, revising and refining rather than betting and hoping. We focus on execution, achieving efficient, accelerated outcomes. We are global in our worldview, seeking farther than the eye can see and learning from diverse experiences and perspectives. Above all, we value authentic, fruitful relationships, and we seek to be and to treasure good people.
