About
Kapor Capital is a venture capital firm and family office founded in 1999 by Mitch Kapor and Freada Kapor Klein. Based in Oakland, California, the firm pivoted in 2011 to focus exclusively on social mission-oriented investing, deploying capital to early-stage tech-enabled startups that close gaps of access and economic opportunity for underserved and underrepresented communities in the United States. They invest in tech-driven early-stage companies with potential for large-scale economic success that also aim to close significant gaps of access, opportunity, or outcome for low-income communities and/or communities of color in the U.S. Kapor Capital also emphasizes building diverse teams and inclusive company cultures. The firm has made over 380 total investments across seed, Series A, and Series B stages and manages approximately $224 million in assets under management. Kapor Capital is part of the broader Kapor family ecosystem, which includes the Kapor Foundation, Kapor Center, and SMASH Academy, all working to transform the technology sector for Black, Latine, and Native communities.
