B Capital
Description
B Capital Group is a prominent global venture capital firm co-founded in 2015 by Raj Ganguly and Eduardo Saverin, a co-founder of Facebook. Headquartered in Manhattan Beach, California, the firm has established itself as a significant player in the technology investment landscape, backing innovative entrepreneurs across various sectors within information technology. B Capital distinguishes itself through its global presence, with offices spanning North America, Europe, and Asia, reflecting its commitment to identifying and scaling companies on an international stage.
The firm's investment strategy primarily targets growth-stage to late-stage companies, although it also operates an Ascent Fund dedicated to earlier-stage investments (Series A and B). B Capital focuses on sectors such as enterprise technology, fintech, healthtech, industrial tech, and consumer enablement. A key differentiator is its strategic partnership with Boston Consulting Group (BCG), which provides portfolio companies with invaluable access to BCG's extensive network, industry expertise, and strategic consulting services, accelerating their growth and market penetration.
B Capital manages substantial capital, with its third early-growth fund, B Capital Fund III, closing at $2.1 billion in 2022, contributing to a total of over $6 billion in assets under management across its various funds. This significant capital base enables the firm to deploy substantial resources into its portfolio companies. Typical first check sizes for B Capital's growth-stage investments generally range from $25 million to $200 million, reflecting their focus on scaling established businesses. The firm actively seeks to partner with companies that demonstrate strong product-market fit and significant potential for global expansion.
