We love tech startups who are pushing the possibilities in materials science.

TDK has a proven track record of solving problems, since 1935.
Our VC firm believes in a sustainable world where digital, energy, and environmental transformation will improve billions of lives. Our mission is to help accelerate learning, bring meaningful contributions to society, and invest in startups with similar ideals.
We absolutely want to “move the needle” by delivering meaningful financial results with our co-investors and bringing new, powerful, transformational business opportunities to TDK. By focusing on Scaling Impact, we ensure a sense of purpose and a sense of urgency, with both patience and speed in our investment decision-making.
TDK Ventures exists to provide every startup we invest in with the tools they need to bring their visions to life. Of course, this includes financial resources and support, but we also bring a full measure of TDK Goodness to our portfolio companies to help accelerate their success. Depending on their needs, we may provide early product validation, pilot programs, customer, channel, and ecosystem access, industry and outsourcing connections, market insights, materials, manufacturing, supply chain expertise, branding, and/or go-to-market mentorship.
