Frequently asked questions
How does Affinity Capital source its investment opportunities?
Affinity relies on direct relationships with US multi-stage venture and growth-equity firms rather than competitive auction processes. The firm typically participates as a co-investor or direct allocator in rounds led by established Silicon Valley general partners, with sourcing anchored to its network across San Francisco and Los Angeles.
What is Affinity Capital's geographic focus?
The firm concentrates on US West Coast technology companies, primarily in California, while also evaluating Taiwan-based deep-tech companies with global commercialization paths. Its investor base is predominantly Asian institutional and family-office capital seeking curated exposure to North American innovation.
Does Affinity Capital invest directly or through funds?
Affinity employs both direct co-investments and fund commitments. The firm structures vehicles that allow limited partners to access specific US deals alongside established venture and growth funds, avoiding the blended fee layers typical of fund-of-funds structures.
What investment stages does Affinity Capital target?
The firm targets growth-stage rounds, typically Series B through pre-IPO, where technology risks are partially de-risked and commercial traction is established. Early-stage seed and Series A exposure is generally accessed through fund commitments rather than direct positions.
Who are the principals running Affinity Capital?
Affinity Capital does not publicly name individual partners or investment committee members. The firm operates as a lean cross-border platform, with investment professionals based in Taipei City and network presence in the US — though specific principals are not identified in public record.
