We capture outsized returns through the substantial increase in industrial value that this creates. We currently manage ten funds with total AUM of approximately $2 billion.
Our investment stage focuses primarily on leading angel to Series A rounds, with typical check sizes of $3–8 million or RMB equivalent.
To date, we have made early-stage investments in over 120 founding teams, including Horizon Robotics, Kujiale, Sensors Data, Tezign, Rokid, Guandata, and Agile Robots. The combined valuation of Linear Capital's portfolio companies is approximately $20 billion.
In the near term, Linear Capital is working to become the premier Data Intelligence Technology Fund. Over the long term, we aim to build the most influential Frontier Technology Application Fund.
