Slayton Capital is a venture capital firm founded in 2001 by the Honorable Gregory W. Slayton in Silicon Valley, California. The firm specializes in early-stage investments in technology companies, emphasizing personal relationships with founders and a commitment to social impact. Slayton Capital's motto is 'Helping Great Entrepreneurs Build Great Companies for the Greater Good.'
The firm's investment strategy involves selecting companies based on four primary criteria, focusing on those where Mr. Slayton has a personal connection with the principals. Slayton Capital has been an early investor in notable companies such as Salesforce.com, Google, Oakley Networks, and Bloom Energy. The firm typically invests in a limited number of companies each year, aiming to add value in areas like business strategy, executive and board recruiting, business development, digital marketing, and fundraising.
Slayton Capital operates without limited partners, allowing the Managing Director to dedicate more time to philanthropic efforts through the Slayton Family Foundation. The firm does not consider unsolicited business plans or proposals, maintaining a selective investment approach. Slayton Capital's commitment to social responsibility is evident in its dedication to donating at least 10% of its profits to charitable organizations annually.
