Backing the technology behind
human performance.

AthleteIQ Ventures is a multi-stage investment firm focused on companies building the future of human performance infrastructure and sports technology. We believe elite athletes and teams serve as the proving ground for technologies that later scale into mainstream consumer and enterprise markets.

Through direct access to athletes, leagues, operators, and performance environments, AthleteIQ helps founders validate, refine, and accelerate category-defining products earlier than traditional investors.

Performance, lived.

Adrian Phillips is an investor who spent ten years in the NFL. He went undrafted out of Texas in 2014. The math on undrafted rookies making a roster is unforgiving. The math on a 10-year career is worse. Adrian played ten anyway, earning All-Pro and Pro Bowl honors with the Chargers and Patriots.

His career got built one rep at a time, on self-belief and an unrelenting desire to do the work others wouldn't.

The work he does as an investor draws on the same instincts that built his football career. He looks at early-stage companies with the same level of preparation, pattern recognition, and willingness to back his own read against the consensus.

The bar is the same one he set as an undrafted free agent who walked off the field an All-Pro: outwork, outlast, and outperform.

AthleteIQ is the institutional version of that work. A focused, network-driven sports tech fund built around an edge most VCs cannot replicate. We activate a decade of relationships across locker rooms, training facilities, front offices, agencies, and brand partners to back founders the rest of the market hasn't found yet.
