NEA is one of the world's largest venture capital firms with over $25 billion in assets under management and a distinctive dual leadership model where separate technology and healthcare practices operate under one roof, each led by long-tenured managing general partners. The firm has maintained continuous fund-raising and investment activity since 1977, promoting all general partners internally with an average 17-year tenure, and operates as a "quiet giant" that has backed globally important companies like Databricks, ByteDance, and Cloudflare while maintaining a reputation for being execution-driven rather than marketing-led.
