Marc Andreessen and Ben Horowitz built a $42 billion empire by treating VC as a media company, publishing prolific content, building massive platform teams, and making contrarian bets on crypto and AI that polarize the industry.

The London and Palo Alto firm made early bets on Facebook, Spotify, Slack, and UiPath, with Jim Breyer's $12.7 million investment in Facebook at a $100 million valuation becoming one of the most profitable venture checks ever written.

The deliberately small partnership refuses to raise mega-funds, keeping each fund under $500 million with equal partner economics, and their early investments in eBay, Twitter, Uber, and Snap prove that discipline outperforms asset gathering.

Masayoshi Son's $100 billion Vision Fund rewrote the rules of venture investing by writing billion-dollar checks into WeWork, Uber, and DoorDash, generating spectacular wins and catastrophic losses that make it the most controversial VC vehicle ever created.

Backed Snap, Affirm, Epic Games, and Mubadala's portfolio companies across offices in Menlo Park, London, Mumbai, and Tel Aviv, building one of the most globally diversified portfolios among top-tier Silicon Valley firms.

Chase Coleman's crossover fund deployed $70 billion into private tech at breakneck speed during 2020-2021, dramatically inflating startup valuations before the 2022 correction forced massive writedowns and a reckoning with spray-and-pray investing.

Yuri Milner's London-based firm invested in Facebook, Twitter, Spotify, Airbnb, and Alibaba before any of them went public, pioneering the late-stage growth equity model that blurred the line between venture capital and public market investing.

More accelerator than traditional VC, YC has funded over 4,000 startups including Airbnb, Stripe, Dropbox, and Coinbase, with its $500,000 standard deal and Demo Day format becoming the most influential launchpad in startup history.
