About

Hemisphere Ventures is a U.S.-based venture capital and consulting firm established in 2014, specializing in early-stage investments across frontier technologies such as space, cybersecurity, biotechnology, nanotechnology, drones, and robotics. The firm has built an impressive portfolio of U.S. frontier technology investments, attracting attention from major venture capital firms and prominent family offices.

In November 2024, Hemisphere Ventures expanded its global presence by opening a new office in Singapore, marking its first venture into Southeast Asia. This strategic move aims to connect local startups with international markets and leverage Hemisphere's extensive U.S. network to foster growth opportunities in the region.

The Singapore office is led by Chip Whittemore, who was promoted to Managing Partner to spearhead this expansion. Under his leadership, Hemisphere Ventures seeks to build relationships with regional investors, founders, and key stakeholders, further solidifying its commitment to the innovation ecosystem.
