Kinetic Ventures is an early and growth stage investor in rural broadband, digital infrastructure and enterprise software. Entrepreneurs, we like to partner with you when you are seeking your first $1 million to $50 million in institutional capital. For broadband opportunities, we seek to fund companies planning significant subscriber growth. For enterprise software businesses, we tend to add the greatest value to you when your customers have begun to pay for your product. Over our four decades of investing, we have developed deep domain knowledge in broadband, enterprise software and cleantech.
We are investing from our fourteenth fund. Our recent funds have been capitalized by endowment, pension, insurance and family office investors. Earlier in our history, Kinetic was a pioneer of the corporate venture model. For two decades we managed capital for a group of Fortune 500 corporate investors.
