With 867 matching companies in Refolk’s index, the depth of senior engineers, founders, and operators is significant.
NEA’s companies tend to share a profile - strong technical founders, fresh capital, and access to the NEA network. Hiring from these companies often means hiring from one of the most curated talent pools in tech.
