## About TransLink Capital

Translink Capital is an early-stage venture capital firm founded in 2007, headquartered in Palo Alto, with additional offices in Beijing, Seoul, Taipei, Tokyo, and Kuala Lumpur, managing approximately $1 billion in assets across its fifth fund.

Beyond capital, the firm's core value proposition is connecting U.S. entrepreneurs to strategic Asian partners, leveraging a team of investors and operators who previously ran U.S. venture practices for major Asian strategics including Foxconn, SoftBank, and UMC.

The firm invests globally across artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, mobility, digital health, fintech, and climate technology. Notable investments include Kurly, Provenance, and Atolio, reflecting its cross-border technology focus.

Translink's investment approach centers on proprietary Asian corporate relationships as a value-add beyond capital, helping portfolio companies establish customer, channel, and supplier ties in Asia. Its criteria favor technology founders who can benefit meaningfully from cross-Pacific market access and partnerships.
