Five investors describe why they back XR companies: preference for full‑stack hardware + software teams that can deliver integrated devices, bets on volumetric capture and authoring tools that digitize real people and assets, and content studios that combine optics, cameras and creative teams. Fund signals include an investor with a $260M vehicle, a corporate arm with eight XR bets, and portfolios where about 2/3 of VR companies have diverse leadership. Traction means unique KPIs and unit economics (CAC, runway), team balance (business/creative/technical), and clear product‑market pivots that actually land.
