Coatue Management

Coatue Management is a global technology-focused investment manager founded in 1999 by Philippe Laffont, headquartered in New York City with offices in Menlo Park, San Francisco, London, and Hong Kong. Originally launched as a technology hedge fund, Coatue now invests across public and private markets through venture, growth, tactical (structured debt and equity), and public equities strategies, emphasizing data-driven research and responsible risk management. The firm backs disruptive, high-growth technology companies with a strong current thesis around artificial intelligence, software, cloud and data infrastructure, fintech, and frontier/space, writing checks that range from early-stage venture ($500K–$10M) through large growth and public-market allocations. Coatue managed roughly $54–55B in assets as of end of 2024 and counts Anthropic, OpenAI, Databricks, Stripe, SpaceX, Figma, and Cursor among its private portfolio companies.

A facet is averaged over the members that carry it, not over the whole cohort — the “Scored” column is that count. Averaging an absent facet as zero would score our own coverage gaps as the providers’ posture.
