Investment thesis
S28 Capital is built by people who have been entrepreneurs and operators themselves, positioning the firm as the kind of partner they wished they had while building their own companies. The team emphasizes hands-on support for founders through every stage, acknowledging that founders do the hard work while the firm provides help wherever possible. Drawing on experience hiring thousands of employees, raising over $200M in venture capital, generating more than $2B in enterprise value, scaling internationally, and building both consumer and enterprise startups, the firm brings an operator's perspective and a diverse, immigrant background to backing today's entrepreneurs.
