Notable Capital
Notable Capital invests in technology companies from their earliest stages through exit, backing founders building in areas including AI, infrastructure and cybersecurity. Its investors and platform team help startups recruit, reach buyers, develop leadership teams and accelerate engineering work. N1 supports early-stage startup growth, while the NextGen AI Fellowship is a summer program for future founders. Its portfolio includes Vercel, Patronus AI, Drata and Handshake.
The firm emerged from GGV Capital’s completed separation in 2024: Notable Capital became the U.S. partnership, while Granite Asia became the separate Asia partnership. Based in Silicon Valley, Notable invests in the U.S., Israel, Europe and Latin America. Its managing partners are Oren Yunger, Glenn Solomon, Hans Tung and Jeff Richards. Its investment analysis examines how software businesses develop: a 2026 essay explains how serverless services commercialize open source and how complementary frameworks can generate demand for commercial infrastructure.
Notable focuses on supporting startups that are capital-efficient and scalable. Its work with Israeli startups includes connecting them with corporate partnerships and strategic allies in global markets, helping founders build relationships beyond their home market.
