Drive Capital’s Columbus gamble is paying off

Drive Capital’s Columbus gamble is paying off

Posted on 9 July 2025 By jobuzo

This week on StrictlyVC Download, TechCrunch EIC Connie Loizos is joined by Drive Capital co-founder Chris Olsen. Chris explains how Drive’s contrarian approach to fund size, ownership stakes, and geographic focus is generating returns where others firms are right now struggling. They also discuss the firm’s current composition, three years after Olsen and his co-founder in the firm, Mark Kvamme, went their separate ways after originally meeting as colleagues at Sequoia Capital. Plus: why Silicon Valley billionaires are choosing Columbus, and what the “venture reckoning” means for the industry.
