Lowercase Capital

Lowercase Capital is a venture capital firm based in San Francisco, California, specializing in seed and early-stage investments in technology startups. Founded in 2010 by Chris Sacca, the firm has backed several high-profile companies, including Twitter, Uber, Instagram, Twilio, and Kickstarter. These strategic investments have contributed to Lowercase Capital's reputation as one of the most successful venture capital firms of its time, with reports indicating returns of at least $5 billion to its investors.

In 2017, Chris Sacca announced his retirement from venture capital to focus on climate action and political initiatives, leading to the closure of Lowercase Capital to new investments. However, the firm continued to support its existing portfolio companies. In 2020, Sacca re-entered the venture capital scene with a renewed focus on climate-related investments through a new fund, Lowercarbon Capital. Despite this shift, Lowercase Capital remains active in supporting its portfolio companies and has made investments in sectors such as wireless, media, commerce, infrastructure, energy, and transportation.
