Felicis primarily invests at seed and Series A, often leading or co-leading rounds, across AI, cybersecurity, defence, energy, resilience and healthcare technology.

The firm allocates 1% of each initial investment to founder support, including coaching and personal development. This is a specific budget for the founder’s ability to lead as the organisation grows.

Felicis also makes a public commitment to vote with founders. Its combination of early lead investing and founder development is relevant to entrepreneurs choosing a first institutional partner who will influence both financing and board decisions.
