Overview
Horizons Ventures invests the private capital of Hong Kong billionaire Li Ka-shing and has one of the most remarkable early-stage track records of any family investment vehicle — early checks into Facebook, Spotify, Siri, DeepMind, Zoom and Impossible Foods among them. It invests directly rather than through funds, moves on conviction, and is known for backing frontier technology earlier than institutional investors will. For GPs, Horizons is a co-investor and syndicate partner to cultivate — sharing deal flow is the door-opener, not a fund deck.
