Notable Investments
Inertia Ventures is a New York-based venture capital fund that focuses specifically on disrupting large, slow-moving industries like real estate, finance, insurance, and logistics through B2B AI/ML software, rather than being a generalist fund. Despite being a small, early-stage firm founded around 2020-2021, Inertia has built an unusually strong portfolio of unicorn companies including Betterment, Carta, DocuSign, and Pacaso by taking a hands-on, finance-heavy approach to evaluating startups' unit economics and go-to-market strategies.
