We’re on a mission.
SoftBank Group launched the $100M SB Opportunity Fund in June 2020 to build a community of founders and investors who have been overlooked in venture capital. Through our work, we have built a growing community of 70+ companies. In March 2022, we doubled down on our commitment by making the SB Opportunity Fund an uncapped evergreen fund that will continue to invest in visionary Black, Latinx and Native American founders and give them access to SoftBank Group’s network.
If you are a U.S. Black, Latinx or Native American-founded tech company seeking funding, please introduce yourself. We look forward to hearing from you.

More than capital
The SB Opportunity Fund provides more than capital and connections; we also offer our founders access to, and support from, a unique community. We call our approach VC2.
