Welcome to OV Funds
OV Funds is the corporate venture capital arm of Oxygen Ventures. We are dedicated to partnering with mid-sized services companies to operate as their external VC arm. Our corporate venture capital methodology is focused on making strategic investments into growth-stage, expansion-focused startups outside of the U.S., particularly those entering the U.S. market from high-potential APAC regions.
Who We Are
OV Funds was founded on the belief that mid-sized CVC practices hold a unique potential in the corporate investment landscape. Unlike larger corporations, mid-sized companies are agile enough to navigate and adapt to evolving markets yet possess the stability to begin charting long-term growth strategies. Our role is to empower these mid-sized companies to explore and capitalize on emerging innovation opportunities while maintaining equitable investment valuations.
