B Capital Group

The firm is led by Co-Founders and Co-CEOs Eduardo Saverin and Raj Ganguly, who share ultimate investment authority. Chairman Howard Morgan, a veteran venture capitalist and co-founder of First Round Capital, provides additional governance. Investment teams in the US and Asia operate with meaningful local autonomy, though final decisions on larger growth-stage allocations typically require co-CEO alignment (per the firm's public descriptions of its governance).

The firm combines traditional venture networks with an in-house data-science platform called B Capital Alpha, which ingests public and proprietary data to surface early-stage companies across sectors. On-the-ground teams in eight offices — including Singapore, Hong Kong, and Beijing — originate deals locally, giving the firm visibility into rounds that US-only investors often miss. Its connection to Facebook alumni networks and deep ties in the Indian startup ecosystem further differentiate origination.

B Capital is structured as a traditional venture capital firm with third-party limited partners, not a single-family office. Eduardo Saverin's personal capital was foundational at launch, but the firm has since raised multiple institutional funds from sovereign wealth funds, endowments, and pension funds alongside his continuing participation as anchor LP and co-leader.

The firm overwhelmingly does direct equity investments, typically taking board seats at the growth stage. While its core model is direct, its fund structure and LP base permit occasional co-investment alongside other GPs, but it does not operate a fund-of-funds program or regularly commit to external managers as a strategy.

B Capital invests across early-stage venture, mid-stage growth, and late-stage pre-IPO rounds. With the close of its $2.1 billion Growth Fund III in 2022, the firm formalized separate vehicles for early-stage and growth-stage investing, allowing it to back companies from Series A through secondary transactions just before public listing.

Eduardo Saverin co-founded Facebook at Harvard in 2004 alongside Mark Zuckerberg and held a significant equity stake at the time of his departure. That stake, combined with subsequent settlements and investments, forms the foundation of his multibillion-dollar net worth, which seeded B Capital's launch in 2015.

Unlike most US venture firms that centralize all investment authority in a single partner group, B Capital runs co-equal investment committees in the US and Asia. Local teams in Singapore, Hong Kong, and Beijing have authority to originate and lead deals, which the firm argues allows it to diligence companies faster and support portfolio companies in-region more effectively than fly-in competitors.
