Berkeley Frontier Fund

We’re a new breed of philanthropic VC, designed to align incentives in the private markets for Berkeley's public benefit. We believe in the Berkeley potential. Berkeley faces an enduring challenge: not enough funding for the things that matter. BFF acts as a conduit for the campus to participate in billions of dollars of value creation from our alumni. To do this, we've committed 30% of fund profits to support student programs in entrepreneurship, diversity, and inclusion. We're a team of investors with decades of experience investing in more than 100 early-to-late stage companies, supported by a world-class team of advisors. Our mission is to invest in the best Berkeley startups and provide a meaningful and sustainable revenue source for Berkeley. Together, we believe in a shared responsibility towards the university and its emerging entrepreneurs.
