We are forming Blue Bear Ventures to make early-stage investments in radical innovation from UC Berkeley and the entire University of California system, building on the success we’ve had growing the CITRIS Foundry startup accelerator on the Berkeley campus since 2013.

Our team of successful entrepreneurs and Berkeley PhDs established BBV because of the incredible technologies and talent we have seen within this community.

We’re excited about providing a smoother startup path and expert guidance to UC entrepreneurs, while offering investors access to the remarkable science and technology innovations from Berkeley and the broader UC system.
