Overview

Founded in 1996 in Los Angeles with investing professionals based in LA and San Francisco, Upfront has backed teams across all technology sectors by investing about half of their capital in the fast-growing Southern California ecosystem, with the balance across the country as well as investments in Europe and India.

Upfront Ventures has raised $650 million that will be spread across three different funds targeted at various points in the startup lifecycle. Upfront Venture VII fund will invest $280 million into early-stage founders focusing on healthcare and applied biology; defense technologies; computer vision; agtech and sustainability; fintech; consumerization of enterprise software; and gaming infrastructure.

Upfront will set aside $250 million for a growth-stage fund (the third such fund for the firm), with the remaining $175 million going to a continuation fund.

Portfolio: Invoca, Bevy, Density, Rally.
