FULL CIRCLE FUND
Full Circle Fund is an early-stage venture capital firm based in Oakland that invests from a perpetual endowment-style fund. Its mission is to close the incentive-alignment gap between founders and funders by acting as long-term partners for mission-driven entrepreneurs. The firm targets startups that are reshaping the future of work, including platforms that give workers agency, tools for independent professionals, and technologies that improve care, health and community services for employees. It also backs companies that enable new education-to-employment pathways, data-driven talent management, and inclusive recruiting solutions. Full Circle combines rigorous due-diligence with a proactive, network-driven approach, leveraging deep human relationships to unlock value across its portfolio. Because it operates out of a perpetual fund, the firm does not face typical fundraising cycles, allowing founders to focus on execution without worrying about the fund’s capital timeline. The firm provides capital, mentorship, and resources, and invites prospects to pitch via its hello@fullcirclefund.io address. Its investment thesis emphasizes transparency, candor, and a focus on strategic vision and execution. Full Circle partners with top-tier firms and exceptional individuals whose values align with its social-impact orientation.
