Venture Capital

Wing Venture Capital

Wing Venture Capital is an early-stage venture firm founded in 2013 by Peter Wagner and Gaurav Garg (both former partners at Sequoia Capital and Accel) and headquartered in Palo Alto, California. Wing invests at the stealth, seed, and Series A stages in companies building the "AI-first" technology stack, and positions itself as a long-term company builder rather than a passive investor. Its thesis spans autonomous applications, AI and machine learning, data platforms and infrastructure, product-led growth (PLG), Web3, and bio x data. Wing raised its fourth flagship fund, Wing Four, a $600M early-stage vehicle, in 2023. Notable outcomes across its portfolio include Snowflake, Cohesity, Gong, Shape Security, and Deepgram, and it operates a Founder Success Platform plus the ET30 (Enterprise Tech 30) research program led by its research team.

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.
