Venture capitalists can now invest and write a check to a startup from anywhere in the US. It's a lesson they learned during the pandemic years, when, as a matter of necessity, many VCs and startup founders connected virtually and found that the need for capital was far beyond the tech hubs of the San Francisco Bay Area and New York.

There are thriving venture capital ecosystems in areas like Austin, Los Angeles, Boston, Miami, and other regions across the US. Data gathered by Carta shows that in 2022, Boston, Miami, and Austin ranked in the top 10 metropolitan areas with the most venture investment activity.

Insider has compiled the must-know venture capitalists and those quickly rising the ranks across the US that every startup founder interested in fundraising should meet — virtually or in person — based on recommendations from their peers and our research.
