Revolution

Revolution's Rise of the Rest Fund is a Washington, D.C.-based venture capital fund within Revolution that invests seed capital in startups headquartered outside Silicon Valley, New York, and Boston. It focuses on U.S. companies that can start and scale outside traditional coastal hubs, with portfolio activity across sectors including SaaS, AI and machine learning, fintech, healthtech, defense, logistics, media, and privacy. The fund is most relevant for founders raising seed rounds in overlooked U.S. startup ecosystems, with some later-stage co-investment activity.
