Lux Capital
Check: No personal check-size range is published. Lux invests early and can support companies across their development, but its USD 7B under management and individual financing totals are not Peter's personal allocation limits.
Peter seeks scientifically and technologically ambitious ventures attempting what most people think will not work but could become indispensable if they succeed. He is a generalist across technology and healthcare, with a particular record in multidisciplinary platforms—robotics, software, data, imaging, AI, and biology—that expand human capability, create new categories, and convert substantial technical risk into outsized societal and economic value.

V3V Ventures
Check: No Stanko-specific check range is public. A current third-party V3V profile reports a firm-level typical range of $100K–$1M at pre-seed/seed, while public round databases describe the larger rounds V3V joins rather than its own checks. Treat $100K–$1M as directional and confirm instrument, allocation and follow-on capacity directly.
Stanko invests in early-stage software, digital infrastructure and emerging technology, with a strong Web3 focus and an engineer's bias toward difficult, foundational systems. His current public filter is a move away from narratives toward measurable fundamentals: real products, revenue, product traction, user retention and sustainable business models. Within crypto he highlights infrastructure, stablecoin and payment rails, institutional adoption, DeFi, cross-chain systems and the decentralized-AI stack across compute, storage, data, models and applications. V3V pairs capital with architecture, GTM, distribution and follow-on fundraising support.

Lux Capital
Check: No verified personal or standard Lux check-size range is published. Shahin invests from early conviction through enduring scale and has co-founded companies; financing requirements are opportunity-specific and should be confirmed directly.
Shahin creates and backs generational frontier companies that endow people and machines with new capabilities. An engineer and founder, he looks across AI, chips, compute, autonomy, aerospace, robotics, biotech, defense, energy, and infrastructure for radical underlying technologies—not diminishing improvements—that can unlock previously impossible products. He invests early, may help form companies, and supports founders through technical proof, customer trust, manufacturing, and scale.

Lux Capital
Check: No personal check-size range is published. Lux's USD 7B under management and disclosed company rounds are not Grace's personal range; she is explicitly described as a first-check and early investor.
Grace backs computational-science companies where software or AI transforms difficult physical, institutional, or technical systems. She looks for first-check opportunities in infrastructure and applications, including model platforms, developer tools, generative media, robotics, and AI-native enterprise workflows. Her product lens starts with a painful real-world experience and asks whether new fundamental technology enables an excellent end-to-end product, rather than an AI feature bolted onto an old workflow.
