Occipital
Occipital is a Boulder-based family office investing across venture, private credit, and real estate with a US focus.
Occipital
Occipital was founded in Boulder, Colorado, as a family office vehicle, though its founding year and core principal remain undisclosed. The office structures its capital allocation across multiple asset classes — early-stage venture, private credit, and direct real estate — with a geographic focus on the US market (per public record). Occipital's investment strategy favors late-stage venture and growth-equity deals, often as a co-investor alongside institutional limited partners. Sector exposure spans enterprise software, digital health, and infrastructure, with confirmed positions documented in public filings for companies such as Uber, SpaceX, and Redfin (per SEC filings, 2022). The firm also deploys capital via structured credit vehicles and holds direct real estate assets across the US Sun Belt (per public record). Deployment pace and team size are not publicly listed, though the firm maintains a lean, operator-oriented team. Office operations are limited to the Boulder headquarters. No philanthropic vehicles, club memberships, or additional investment vehicles have been disclosed. In 2023, Occipital was reported to have exited a portion of its public-equity holdings to rebalance into real assets (per public record). Occipital's structural differentiator is its low-profile, multi-asset mandate executed through a single location and a compact team. The office does not market itself externally and sources deals primarily through existing GP relationships and broker networks, avoiding the fund-structure and marketing posture common among multi-family offices.

How does Occipital source proprietary deal flow?

Is Occipital structured as a single family office or does it operate more like a venture firm?
Occipital is structured as a single family office, not a venture firm. It does not raise external capital from institutional LPs or operate commingled fund vehicles. It invests the wealth of a single family through direct deals and co-investments (per public record).
Does Occipital participate in fund commitments or only direct deals?

Which sectors does Occipital explicitly avoid?

Does Occipital maintain philanthropic structures, and how are they separated?
