Frequently asked questions
What investment stages does WestWave Capital target?

Which sectors does WestWave explicitly invest in?
The firm's sector focus includes enterprise software, AI/ML, cybersecurity, and industrial technology. WestWave favors companies building infrastructure-layer products rather than consumer-facing applications, per its positioning as a deep-tech investor.
Is WestWave Capital structured as a traditional venture fund or does it operate differently?
