CapitalG Management Company LLC[1][2] (formerly Google Capital) is the independent growth fund under Alphabet Inc.[3] Founded in 2013, it focuses on larger, growth-stage technology companies, and invests for profit rather than strategically for Google.

[4] In addition to capital investment, CapitalG's approach includes giving portfolio companies access to Google's people, knowledge, and culture to support the companies' growth and offer them guidance.

[3][4] Following the Alphabet restructuring, Google Capital was renamed CapitalG on November 4, 2016.

Lawee was joined by partners Gene Frantz (formerly a partner at private equity firm TPG), Laela Sturdy (now managing partner; before joining CapitalG she was a Managing Director of Emerging Businesses at Google), Derek Zanutto (formerly at TPG, Hellman & Friedman and GIC) and Jesse Wedler (who joined CapitalG in 2013 out of Stanford business school).

[4][9] CapitalG also comprises over 50 advisors from senior positions within Google, who offer portfolio companies guidance in business areas such as data science, engineering, marketing, and product management.
