About HawkTower
Central California is enriched by tourism, agriculture, viticulture, research, military, and natural wonders. These elements come together most acutely in the Monterey Bay Area. HawkTower champions enterprises and endeavors linked to this region and, thus, differentiates itself as an aspirational investor for entrepreneurs focused on Central California and the Monterey Bay Area. HawkTower represents strong convictions, long-term focus, and a unique, regionally-focused investment thesis. HawkTower will launch a venture capital fund in 2024, HawkTower Ventures, and a regional startup accelerator program across the Central Coast and Valley, with a hub in Monterey. HawkTower will invest in entrepreneurs establishing roots in Central California, serving local corporations and industry, supporting the objectives of local institutions and foundations, collaborating with local colleges and universities, returning to where they lived/studied previously, receiving PhDs from local universities, and graduating from local colleges. Founders and companies will benefit from having HawkTower on their capital table alongside other investment firms. We are “boots on the ground” in Central California. We maintain strategic relationships, partnerships, and memberships with community-based organizations, institutions, elected and appointed government officials, local corporations, influential SMBs (e.g., wineries and hotels), academia, and more. Our value proposition is differentiated; thus, our firm can become aspirational for entrepreneurs who see innovation and commercialization potential in Central California.
