Imaginable Futures
About Imaginable Futures
Imaginable Futures was founded in 2020 as a venture of The Omidyar Group, spun out of the education initiative at Omidyar Network. Pierre and Pam Omidyar founded and fund the Omidyar Group. Several sources describe the firm as a philanthropic investment firm that uses both grants and investments. PitchBook counts three professionals. Goldi names Amy Klement as managing partner and Alex Huang as a senior associate. Private Markets Minute reports a $175 million second fund, labeled Fund II. The sources reviewed do not confirm the size of the first fund.
Public sources do not describe an AI-specific strategy or AI-focused partners. The stated focus is education. Private Markets Minute says the $175 million fund targets early-stage companies building pathways into careers and retraining workers as AI changes work. Portfolio examples include Fidu AI, which the firm participated in during October 2022, and Beam, a financial software company whose $6.4 million Series A closed in November 2022. Founders pitching on an AI thesis should confirm the current focus with the firm directly.
Tracxn data shows the firm's deals concentrated in Series A and Series B, with fewer seed, Series C and Series D rounds. Goldi reports an average disclosed round size of $22.7 million across seven rounds. That figure describes whole rounds, not the firm's own check. Individual check sizes are not public.
- Fidu AI: business and productivity software. The firm participated in a $5 million round in October 2022. The name includes AI, but the sources list it as business software rather than AI-specific.
