Village Global is a network-driven seed-stage VC backed by elite entrepreneurs including Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, Reid Hoffman, and others. The firm writes early checks of $500K–$3M, but its true value lies in its connected capital—founders gain access to deep industry networks and mentorship. Village’s decentralized model empowers operator-scouts to source deals and support founders autonomously. Their strategy centers on accelerating founder growth through prestige and access as much as capital.
