Bain Capital Ventures

Bain Capital Ventures is the venture capital arm of Bain Capital, one of the world's largest alternative investment firms, founded in 2001 and headquartered in San Francisco with offices in New York. The firm invests from seed through Series B stages in enterprise software, fintech, consumer, and SaaS businesses, with initial checks from $3 million to $20 million across both US and international opportunities. Bain Capital Ventures brings the institutional resources, talent networks, and analytical capabilities of one of the world's largest investment platforms to the early-stage venture market, offering portfolio companies access to expertise in strategic planning, international expansion, recruiting, and operational scaling that few dedicated venture firms can match. The firm manages more than $4.5 billion in assets under management across its venture vehicles and has built a track record of significant exits across multiple technology cycles. DocuSign, the electronic signature and agreement cloud platform, is the firm's most celebrated outcome, completing a Nasdaq IPO in 2018 and growing to a market capitalization of over $40 billion at its peak. LinkedIn, the professional networking platform, was backed by Bain Capital Ventures before its $26.2 billion acquisition by Microsoft in 2016. Flywire, a payments infrastructure company for healthcare and education that Bain Capital Ventures has backed through multiple rounds, is publicly listed on Nasdaq. Pilot, an AI-powered bookkeeping and financial operations platform for startups, is an active portfolio company. Beyond its original investments in DocuSign, Flywire, LinkedIn, and Pilot, the portfolio spans enterprise software, fintech, and digital commerce businesses.
