Collective Global Management

Incredible to witness the continued evolution of our strategic partner, General Catalyst, into a transformation company — one that transcends the traditional conception of an asset manager. Bravo to Hemant and everyone involved.

Direct from the Collective Global Summit in Stockholm, our Founder & co-CEO Sheel Tyle was featured for an in-depth interview at IPEM in Paris. Sheel spoke about who we are at Collective Global and how we view the innovation landscape, GP staking, and investing in AI. Looking ahead, we are excited about investing in the next generation of incredible companies along with the world’s leading venture managers. At Collective Global, we believe that strong growth in the innovation economy and private markets AUM, along with simultaneous disruption in the venture markets, combine to create a compelling, generational opportunity.

Just 24 months into the life of Collective Global, we could not be more proud of our “chosen family” reunion this week in Stockholm. Thank you to our terrific strategic partners like Paul Fielding of General Catalyst, Chris Olsen of Drive Capital, and Patrick Finnegan of Second Sight Ventures. Thank you to the inspiring CEOs leading breakthrough portfolio companies, like Geoffrey von Maltzahn of Lila Sciences. And to our brilliant Board Partners like The Hon. Julia Gillard AC and Alec Ross. Most of all, thank you to our magnificent investors, chaired by the incomparable Molly Murphy of OCERS, who led a stirring conversation that wove together insights from likeminded institutions from Australia to Japan, California to New York, and Sweden to Monaco. Truly inspired by the innovation economy and the vision, positivity, and camaraderie of our consortium.

🧠"We no longer need to compartmentalize science... instead we can build a single kind of mind that can operate across an immense diversity of scientific fields and pull new knowledge into that single mastery of the way that the world around us works. We believe this is going to open up incredible frontiers in medicine, energy, new climate technologies and a lot more."   Our Co-founder & CEO Geoffrey von Maltzahn joined Caroline Hyde and Edward Ludlow live on Bloomberg Television to share how our Series A fundraise is fueling our mission to build scientific superintelligence to solve humankind's greatest challenges.

Collective Global is thrilled to co-lead the Lila Sciences Series A, working with their visionary team and our strategic partners at General Catalyst. Think of Lila as an AI scientist building IP factories in every critical research area. Nature’s technology is exceptionally complex — what we know already is just scratching the surface. So science is a perfect focus area for AI, and especially the combination of AI, human scientists, and robotics. Lila is fundamentally about building and applying future data sets for the benefit of humankind — including our many pension, sovereign, and institutional client bases around the world. https://lnkd.in/eTRaNwHc

Collective Global is thrilled to welcome Henrik Nordlander as a Partner. Henrik will lead GP staking partnerships with top venture and growth firms globally. Henrik joins Collective from the Third Swedish National Pension Fund (AP3) where he most recently was Co-Head of Alternative Investments and led global private equity strategies, deploying more than $4 billion into 100+ fund investments and direct investments as well as overseeing circa $19 billion in total AUM across several illiquid asset classes, including venture capital and growth equity. Welcome Henrik!

Founding isn’t a straight line. The magic happens in the messy middle, where everything could tilt either way, and every choice counts. This uncertainty is part of the fabric of reality, so much of founding is about embracing the unknown and the potential that lies in every fork in the road. There’s also freedom in letting go of rigid ideas. Sometimes, “our expectations limit us more than the world itself“, as the Nobel prize winner Anton Zeilinger would put it. Like a photon at a half-silvered mirror, we can’t always predict which path will open, but we do know that randomness and openness are built into the process.   If science shows us anything, it’s that there are no fixed blueprints: freedom and curiosity go hand in hand, and sometimes the best answers come when we allow things to unfold naturally.   At General Catalyst Seed, we stand by founders in the messy middle as we are founders by ourselves. Trusting in their vision, fostering bold ideas, and sharing the freedom to adapt as new possibilities emerge. Relationships thrive not on control, but on a shared willingness to let things unfold – knowing that true breakthroughs and lasting value are often born from embracing randomness, nurturing trust, and navigating the journey together.   I’m deeply grateful to work alongside partners who understand this jazz-like dance of founders’ journeys:   Neeraj Arora built Venture Highway into one of India’s most respected seed firms, long before the ecosystem had the scale it has today. Now he helps our GC founders access cross-border talent, navigate global markets, and stay anchored in what matters most.   Yuri Sagalov is a seasoned expert who’s lived every phase of the startup journey, from technical founder to backing legendary teams at Y Combinator and Wayfinder.   If you’re building through uncertainty or in the thick of it and want to talk, I’d love to hear what you’re working on. We’re here for the long haul. Torsten Reil, Arthur Mensch, Qasar Younis, your paths, like those of so many others, keep reminding us what this journey can become. 👉 Find more on GC Seed in the comments. #GCSeed #FounderFirst

"No asterisks." That's our mantra. We don't want to be the best vc firm 𝘪𝘯 𝘊𝘰𝘭𝘶𝘮𝘣𝘶𝘴 or 𝘪𝘯 𝘖𝘩𝘪𝘰. We aren't aiming to be the best 𝘷𝘤 firm. We want to be the best investment firm in the world. Where do we believe the best place is to do that? Right here in Columbus. No asterisks. And say it with your chest. Last week Chris sat down with TC Editor in Chief, Connie Loizos, to give an update on Drive, how we view the world, and why Columbus and Ohio and the Midwest remain a great fit for what we're building.
