eonCapital is a venture capital firm that specializes in early-stage investments. Established in 1997 as an Internet marketing strategy and web development company under the name eonBusiness, eonCapital has a history of assisting entrepreneurs in launching, developing, and growing web-based businesses. Their early success in helping others led them to start investing directly in and operating their own e-commerce businesses, with some ventures beginning as early as 1999. Throughout the years, they have developed, invested in, and operated many successful Internet service and e-commerce enterprises, with several having been acquired. With a firm foundation in entrepreneurial experience, eonCapital established their own private venture funds, eonCapital Venture Fund I and II, focused on investing in seed and early-stage Software as a Service (SaaS) and mobile application businesses. Their investment philosophy is rooted in the understanding that while funding is essential for startups, execution is critical for success. Therefore, they not only provide financial support but also add value to portfolio companies through strategic planning, offering follow-on funding, and introducing new funding sources. By understanding the challenges startups face from concept through development and into growth, eonCapital positions itself as more than just a funding source; they are partners in execution, aiming to address the funding gap for entrepreneurs of seed and early-stage companies in industries such as Software, Media, Education, Hardware and Manufacturing, Retail and E-Commerce, Cloud Services and Infrastructure, Developer Tools, Local Commerce, Robotics, Mobility, and Online Social.
