Careers at Fifty Years

The climate is heading off a cliff. Thousands die every day of malnutrition. Pandemics put the world at risk. Technology entrepreneurship can solve these problems and many more! Fifty Years is a different kind of venture capital firm. At 50Y we believe startups can and should solve the world’s biggest problems. We believe massive wealth creation and positive impact can go hand in hand. We support early-stage founders creating massively profitable businesses that can also solve the world’s biggest problems. We pride ourselves on always going the extra mile for our portfolio founders and have built the 50Y team around helping our founders create and scale the most important companies of the coming decades. We currently focus on startups based in North America working at the forefront of synthetic biology, energy, food, health care, space, construction, genomics, and many other industries. And it’s working. Our founders have accomplished incredible feats, from replacing existing toxic industrial processes at scale to launching internet satellites, to inventing new ways to replace animal agriculture. Flexibility, hard work, and getting stuff done are critical for success at 50Y. All of us often work after hours and on weekends because one of our values is that we work as hard as our founders.
