SoftBank Capital is a US-based venture capital firm that primarily focuses on early stage investments across the US, but also invests in later stage financings. The firm concentrates on companies in socially-driven sectors including mobile applications, e-commerce, online advertising, gaming, and cloud computing. Early stage investments are focused within the US, but the firm makes later stage investments on a global scale, primarily targeting the US and Asia. The firm is no longer looking to raise any new funds and future investments will come from the balance sheet of the parent SoftBank Group Corp. The firm will be moving away from early stage investments to making investments in more mature businesses.
