Investment Thesis

Oxford Capital believes that founders are the key to realizing a startup’s potential, and they invest in ambitious founding teams that have an unfair advantage and demonstrate the characteristics and behavior necessary to execute. Their core principle is captured in their statement: ‘If founders win, we win, and this informs how we operate.’ They are intentional about the support they offer and look to build trusted relationships with founders, serving as partners to navigate early stages of growth.
