4C Capital LLC, operating under the brand CoCreation Capital, is a venture capital fund with a distinct approach towards investing in technology startups. Positioned at the intersection of entrepreneurs, capital, and management, CoCreation Capital seeks to play a more hands-on role in guiding startups to success compared to conventional venture capital firms. Their investment strategy is built around the belief that technology startups require comprehensive support, far beyond financial backing, to overcome challenges such as mediocrity and failure. They focus on businesses solutions, hardware, manufacturing, and HealthTech industries, leveraging their expertise in equity investments. CoCreation Capital operates on a model where their team members, including experienced founders and investors like Ashok Jain and Sean Foote, actively join the teams of the portfolio companies, working closely with only 1 to 2 companies per person. This immersive partnership is engineered to dramatically transform the odds of success from a mere 20% to an impressive 75%. Their fund structure is similar to a traditional venture fund, with a 2% management fee and 20% carried interest, but introduces a unique twist—investors who aid in the development of portfolio companies can increase their share of the profits. The partnership-driven philosophy of CoCreation Capital extends to their investor base, welcoming those who are willing to contribute to the company-building process. Their operational headquarters is at 1287 Anvilwood Ave., Sunnyvale, California, and they prioritize building successful enterprises through collective effort and strategic investment practices.
