The California Innovation Fund provides venture funding and the backing of a robust community of UC faculty, alumni, and industry leaders. Together, we strive to help ground-breaking entrepreneurs succeed. We are committed to fuelling the education of the next generation of entrepreneurs by re-investing 50% of our profit into the public University of California system. We focus on industry-agnostic early-stage startups seeking late seed or Series A rounds of finance. Our investments range from $250K to $1 million, with reserves for follow-on investment. We support UC-affiliated entrepreneurs in solving significant, urgent problems that will shape a positive future and benefit the public good. Contact: startup@calinnovationfund.com
