  • Business Insider is seeking nominations for this year’s list of rising stars of venture capital.
  • Please submit your nominations via the Google form by Friday, November 10.

Business Insider is assembling this year’s list of rising stars of venture capital — our definitive roster of the up-and-coming investors finding (and winning) the next breakout companies.

We’re looking for sharp, rigorous investors who are making their mark in Startupland, whether they sit at a blue-chip firm or a scrappy emerging fund.

Submit your suggestions below or via this form.

In the past, we’ve included vice presidents and principals who became partners at their firms, such as Deedy Das at Menlo Ventures and Abby Meyers at Bain Capital Ventures. Solo capitalist Rex Salisbury went on to raise a second fund, while IVP’s Yuri Lee now invests out of a multibillion-dollar pension fund as head of venture capital.

Take a look at our 2024 list here.

Submit a nomination below or through this form by 11:59 p.m. EST, November 10 for your selection be considered. We can’t guarantee feedback on individual submissions due to volume.

Who qualifies

  • US-based venture capitalists across roles, from vice presidents to principals to partners
  • Investors with clear, recent wins: sourcing or leading competitive deals, developing theses ahead of the crowd, or delivering outsize portfolio support
  • We welcome nominations from funds of any size, including emerging funds; self-nominations are fine

What to include in a nomination

  • Role and firm, plus any promotion history within the firm
  • Notable deals in the past 12 months: their role and how they helped support the investment
  • Evidence of edge: backgrounds or perspectives that give them an unfair advantage in investing; examples of winning competitive processes; measurable influence inside their firms and ecosystems

Include a contact in your nomination, and a reporter will follow up as needed.
