Conviction. Capital. Community.

Crusade Ventures has been exploring the intersection of technology and capital since 2009 — long before most of our focus areas became mainstream.

Built on
patience
and precision.

Crusade Ventures was founded with a simple thesis: technology would rewrite the rules of every industry, and the firms best positioned to benefit would be those who understood that shift earliest and deepest.

Over 15 years, we've built a portfolio that spans digital assets, artificial intelligence, and high-growth technology platforms — always with a bias toward structural change over surface-level trends.

Based in Bellevue, WA, we operate as an international firm with portfolio companies and partners across North America, Latin America, and Europe. Our multilingual team reflects the global nature of the opportunities we pursue.

Timeline

15 years of
exploration.

2009
Founded in Bellevue, WA

Crusade Ventures established with an initial focus on technology sector investment and strategic consulting for early-stage companies navigating digital transformation.

2013
Early digital assets exposure

Among the first institutional actors in the Pacific Northwest to formalize a thesis on blockchain and digital assets. Early positions established in what would become foundational infrastructure.

2017
Latin America expansion

Portfolio expanded into Latin American markets, with early backing of fintech platforms addressing financial inclusion — including positions that would prove prescient as the region's digital banking sector exploded.

2021
AI practice launch

Formalized our AI automation consulting and investment practice as large language models began demonstrating genuine enterprise utility. Early adoption advantage in a space that would become central to every industry.

Today
Active across three practices

Continuing to build, invest, and advise across Digital Assets, AI Automation, and Strategic Consulting — with an ever-expanding international network and portfolio.

What We Stand For

Our values.

01
Long-term over short-term

We make decisions with a 10-year horizon, not a 10-month one. This means we're comfortable being early, being patient, and sitting through volatility that shakes out less committed investors.

02
Conviction over consensus

Our best investments have always been the ones that seemed wrong at the time. We do the work to form independent views, then hold them even when the market disagrees.

03
Global perspective

The most important technology trends don't originate in Silicon Valley. We look globally — Latin America, Southeast Asia, Europe — and bring that perspective back to our portfolio and clients.

04
Community as investment

We believe capital without community is incomplete. Sustainable success requires investing in the ecosystems that surround us — not just the companies within them.

Bellevue, WA.
Everywhere else.

Our headquarters are in Bellevue, Washington — in the heart of the Pacific Northwest's technology corridor. But our operations, partnerships, and portfolio span the globe.
