California Technology Ventures LLC Information

Our mission is to build world-class companies by providing capital, resources, and guidance to promising and passionate entrepreneurs and their teams. We understand that entrepreneurs need more than capital to succeed they need resources and partners as well. Our team members use their extensive business experience at startup companies and billion-dollar corporations to advise our portfolio companies towards growth and value-creation.
