NFX is an invite-only guild for digital networks and marketplaces. It runs a three month program in the Bay Area twice per year for 10-15 companies. Companies in the program can be post Series A, post Seed, or pre Seed.

NFX is an early stage venture capital fund based in the San Francisco Bay Area. The Partners are successful entrepreneurs and investors who've built 10 companies with approximately $10 billion in exits. We believe one of the critical keys to our own success was our understanding of 'network effects', the framework that has propelled startups like Facebook, Airbnb, Trulia/Zillow and Slack to industry dominance. While few deeply understand how to engineer network effects, those who do will be tomorrow's technology giants. We work with founders who not only have a deep rooted need to win, but also are building companies with the potential to redefine industries - or create new ones - with the use of network effects.Previously Pete was Founder, Chairman and CEO of Trulia for over a decade. in 2015 Pete merged Trulia with Zillow in a transaction which valued Trulia at $3.5Bn and served on the Zillow Group board during the integration. Trulia is one of the most popular and pioneering real estate web and mobile apps in the US. Pete started Trulia to revolutionize the real estate experience by empowering consumers to make better decisions. Pete raised $33M from leading venture capital such as Sequoia and Accel and built a leading mobile app in the category and then had a successful IPO.
