LOS ANGELES, Aug. 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Los Angeles-based venture capital firm Group 11 has been named among America’s Top Venture Capital Firms of 2025 by TIME — an inaugural ranking published by TIME and Statista recognizing the most exceptional firms shaping the U.S. venture capital landscape.
Developed in collaboration with Statista, the TIME ranking evaluated firms across three key performance pillars: fundraising strength, investment capacity and activity, as well as exit and fund performance. Group 11’s inclusion affirms its position as a catalyst for innovation, a partner to entrepreneurs, and a builder of the next generation of category-defining leaders.
Dovi Frances, Founding Partner of Group 11, said:
“To be recognized by TIME in its first-ever ranking of America’s top venture capital firms is an incredible honor. For over a decade, Group 11 has stood apart by being agile, pursuing bold opportunities, and heavily investing in Israeli-related technology. This marks the third consecutive year that Group 11 has received prestigious recognition from top-tier global evaluators- rankings based on rigorous, industry-relevant metrics where our performance speaks for itself.”
This honor adds to Group 11’s growing list of accolades, including being named the #1 Top Performing Venture Capital Fund Manager in America by Preqin (2024) and #3 Globally in the HEC Paris–Dow Jones Global Venture Capital Performance Ranking (2023).
Recent portfolio highlights include Dream Security becoming a unicorn in Q1 2025, Next Insurance‘s $2.6 billion sale to MunichRe, and Navan’s pending IPO. Several other portfolio companies are on track to join the unicorn ranks or secure significant markups later this year or in early 2026. This continued success reflects Group 11’s ability to identify category-defining companies time and again, and to be the partner of choice for the world’s most exceptional entrepreneurs.
