Upfront Ventures’ biggest current holdings.
The most valuable companies Upfront Ventures still holds — unicorns and thoroughbreds it has backed, ordered by Dealroom’s latest valuation. Companies that have been acquired or gone public are in Exits instead. Where a cap table names Upfront Ventures directly, the stake and its estimated value are shown too.
Estimated value = Upfront Ventures’ disclosed ownership % × Dealroom’s latest company valuation; direct named stakes only, exited positions excluded. Figures are indicative, not reported marks. Upfront Ventures also appears inside investor groups in Route, where a standalone stake isn’t disclosed. See the underlying cap tables on Dealroom →
Upfront Ventures’ biggest exits.
Portfolio companies that IPO’d or were acquired at $1B+, with the valuation recorded at exit and — for those still public — their value today. Exit events come from each company’s funding-round history; entry stage from Upfront Ventures’ transaction record.
Where Upfront Ventures’ portfolio is concentrated.
Distribution of portfolio companies by headquarters country, sector, entry stage and current growth stage. Across all 256 portfolio companies. "Stage entered" is the first priced round the investor joined, derived from the investor’s transaction history.
