2 Year Future Fund

WHO WE ARE

2 Year Future Fund (2YFF) is a woman and minority-owned venture studio fund that focuses on AI-infused startups using exponential technologies. Our focus is North America and Europe. Our mission is to lead humanity forward to a future where humans and artificial general intelligence (AGI) work, live and play together. We prioritize building and investing in startups that look over the horizon to where models are accelerating too, as current models are by default artifacts. Spatial Computing (AR/VR), Robotics, Sensors, Marketplaces, Multimodular computing, Neomorphic computing, Novel chips, Holograms, Quantum, Biotech and Machine learning we prefer. At our campus in Montecito, California, we create AI-infused companies with AGI-readiness, focusing on product-market fit before building. We hand-select project captains and empower them to become founders and CEOs. We also invest in brazen founders, providing a 90-day on-site residency complete with on campus housing so founders can focus on building, not where to sleep. Our record speaks for itself. We have outperformed the S&P 500 and built a robust IP portfolio with over 100 patents and trademarks pending, in progress or awarded. We have strong industry relationships and access to deal flow through renowned university professors and Fortune 500 partnerships. 2YFF is shaping the future of venture studios and using AI in ways humans often have not yet dreamed of. We invite visionary founders and investors to join us on this transformative journey. 2yearfuturefund.com
