For over twenty years, the partners at August Capital have invested in breakthrough startups across the information technology sector. Whether you are revolutionizing wireless data transmission (Atheros) or creating the first search engine for machine data (Splunk) or rethinking subscription commerce (BarkBox), the partners at August are here to help you thrive. And we’re not just about the money. Sure, we’ve got approximately $2 billion under management. But you can get money from lots of places. We’re all about helping you succeed. We know that venture capitalists don’t build companies; entrepreneurs do. But we sure can help. ▪ We are a venture capital firm located in the SF Bay Area and have sponsored multiple fund vintages since our founding in 1995. ▪ We currently manage approximately $2 Billion in aggregate capital commitments. ▪ We primarily focus on early-stage investments, but also make opportunistic later-stage investments, which we believe have venture capital-level risk/return profiles. ▪ We have a diverse group of limited partners, including endowments, private foundations, fund of funds, public charitable organizations and corporate strategic investors. ▪ We value engaged limited partners. We make it a priority to understand our limited partners’ missions and how our investment returns will support their long-term investment goals. ▪ We have a team of investment professionals who are open-minded, creative, flexible, experienced, and well-networked.
