Rob Ness

Rob Ness is the General Partner of Asymmetry Ventures, a seed-stage VC firm backing companies that push humanity forward. After a career spanning consulting giants like Booz Allen Hamilton, Grant Thornton, and Capgemini, Ness built one of AngelList's largest syndicates — over 2,700 LPs, 200+ deals, and a 40%+ IRR over seven years as syndicate lead. His early bets on unicorns BillionToOne and Foresight Mental Health, and his leadership of Orbit Fab's $10M round, mark him as one of the seed-stage investors to watch. A US Army veteran and Harvard/Georgetown/UC Berkeley-educated economist, Ness is drawn to deep tech with a 'sci-fi flavor' — biotech, space infrastructure, quantum, and AI — that could change civilization.
