Hetz Ventures is a seed-stage VC where the entire investment team consists of ex-engineers with deep infrastructure backgrounds, deliberately built so partners resemble the highly technical founders they back rather than generalist financiers, and they operate with an unusually startup-like internal culture where everyone sits in the same open room and decisions are made transparently in group brainstorms. They specialize narrowly in infrastructure software and have built a proprietary network of roughly 120-150 senior data, AI, and infrastructure executives who behave like an extended team for product validation and early sales, while running a highly structured, data-instrumented deal funnel that they treat as an optimization problem rather than an informal craft.
