Prologis Ventures

North America, California, United States, San Francisco

Description

Prologis Ventures serves as the strategic venture capital arm of Prologis, the global leader in logistics real estate. Based in San Francisco, the firm is dedicated to identifying and fostering innovation within the logistics and supply chain sectors. Its investment mandate spans from Series A through Growth stage companies, targeting technologies that enhance efficiency, sustainability, and safety across the modern supply chain. Key areas of interest include robotics and automation, artificial intelligence, Internet of Things (IoT), supply chain visibility platforms, sustainable logistics solutions, and advancements in last-mile delivery.

A significant differentiator for Prologis Ventures is its deep integration with its parent company. Portfolio companies gain unparalleled access to Prologis's expansive global network, which encompasses over 1 billion square feet of logistics real estate and serves more than 6,700 customers worldwide. This unique advantage provides startups with invaluable opportunities for real-world product testing, rapid scaling, and direct engagement with potential enterprise customers, accelerating their market penetration and development.

Prologis Ventures operates with substantial financial backing, underscored by Prologis's announcement in 2021 of a $1.2 billion commitment to supply chain innovation, a significant portion of which is allocated to venture investments. While their typical initial investments in Series A and B rounds range from $2 million to $10 million, their capacity extends to larger checks for growth-stage companies. This strategic capital, combined with operational expertise and market access, positions Prologis Ventures as a powerful partner for companies aiming to revolutionize the logistics landscape.
