East Gate Capital invests in high growth, technology centric companies that are based in the U.S. and serve international markets. East Gate targets investments in companies with at least one previous round of institutional investment, with less than 75 employees, first class management team and rapid sequential revenue growth. The majority of the East Gate portfolio is located in Northern California but the team will invest outside this region if there is a strong, local anchor investor. Entrepreneurs seeking investment from East Gate should have an outstanding value proposition, a dedicated management team with a proven ability to execute, and a unique and groundbreaking technology. East Gate was founded in 1997 with the goal of being a value added investor to early stage ventures and prefers companies that have strategies in Japan, Korea or Greater China as a critical piece of their business plan.
