The world is about to go through the most extraordinary period in human history.
New technologies and increasingly powerful existing ones, many driven by the exponential growth of technology, will lead to the development of extraordinary new products, new industries, and new ways to move humanity forward.
Born out of Singularity University and located at the intersection of some of the world’s leading thinkers, entrepreneurs and investors is KittyHawk Ventures. KittyHawk leverages this vantage point to invest in world-changing entrepreneurs and companies that bring positive change to people and the planet while providing top returns to investors.
ABOUT KITTYHAWK VENTURES
KittyHawk Ventures is named after Kitty Hawk, North Carolina where the Wright Brothers flew the world’s first airplane and launched a new era in human mobility.
The firm was founded by Will Weisman in 2015 at Singularity University, a place that has witnessed the birth of new technologies, new industries and new chapters in human achievement. For almost seven years, Will was an Executive Director at Singularity where he helped lead the organization and build and run the large summits around the world.
As a platform with over 170 chapters in 159 countries, and over 200k community members, SU provides extraordinary access to what is happening at the forefront of technological change along with the opportunity to connect with some of the world’s leading scientists, academics, investors, entrepreneurs, business executives and government officials.
Will brings these insights and his extensive network to his efforts around KittyHawk and its portfolio. As a result KittyHawk leverages a very broad range of relationships to source, vet and support portfolio companies in the Singularity University ecosystem and beyond.
In 2020, Will joined forces with Randall Mays, an investor and business leader to expand KittyHawk and increase the value that it could provide to entrepreneurs throughout their company’s entire lifecycle.
KittyHawk has a passion for investing in early stage companies that are solving hard technical problems to create sustainable, high growth businesses. We look for exceptional human beings to back and partner with in order to create world changing companies. If this sounds like a good fit, we hope to hear from you and look forward to working together to positively change the world.

Prior to joining Singularity, Will was a venture capitalist at Foundation Capital and Maveron. He’s also been a serial entrepreneur, with the most unusual of these efforts involving the creation of the wrap, yes, the burrito like thing, at a 30-unit restaurant chain he co-founded and sold called World Wrapps.
Will received his MBA from the Stanford Graduate School of Business and a BA from the University of California at Santa Barbara. He regularly speaks on exponential technology trends as well as venture investing and entrepreneurship. Will is an avid kiteboarder and ocean swimmer, and both he and KittyHawk, reside in Santa Monica, CA.
INTELLECTUALLY CURIOUS
We have a growth mindset and love to learn. Here are some of our favorite areas.
WHAT WE LOOK FOR
INVESTMENTS
“Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness. concerning all acts of initiative (and creation) there is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one’s favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance, which no man could have dreamed would have come his way. I have learned a deep respect for one of Goethe’s couplets: Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it!”
– W.H. Murray
KittyHawk is proud to have partnered with these bold organizations and their founders.

One of the great revelations of the Space Age has been the perspective it has given humanity on ourselves. When we see the earth from space, we see ourselves as a whole. We see the unity and not the divisions. It is such a simple image with a compelling message. One planet. One human race.
We are here together and we need to live together with tolerance and respect. We must become Global Citizens. Our only boundaries are the way we see ourselves. The only borders, the way we see each other.
I have been enormously privileged through my work to be able to contribute to our understanding of the universe but it would be an empty universe indeed if it were not for the people I love and who love me. Without them, the wonder of it all would be lost on me.
Let us fight for every woman and every man to have the opportunity to live healthy, secure lives, full of opportunity and love.
We are all time travelers, journeying together into the future. But let us work together to make that future a place we want to visit.
Be brave, be determined, overcome the odds. It can be done.
