Flying Fish
Flying Fish Ventures brings together three partners who have contributed to the Seattle tech scene for over 25 years. United by a shared belief in Seattle’s tech talent, lack of access to venture capital, and an excitement for AI and Machine Learning, they decided to band together and form Flying Fish Ventures. Named after the famous and quintessentially Seattle fish throwers at Pike Place Market, they decided to focus on early stage, Pacific Northwest-based, artificial intelligence and machine learning startups.
