The Evolution of Corporate Venture Capital - The Sony Innovation Fund Story

On Wednesday 5/24, we will have a conversation with Austin Noronha, Managing Director - US of Sony Ventures. Austin has been an entrepreneur himself and, for the past 20 years at Sony, has been investing and advising startups in the global entrepreneurial ecosystem. Join us for light bites and drinks before the conversation from 4:30 to 5pm on the 6th floor lounge.

Austin will share his insight on how Sony Ventures evolved the Sony Innovation Fund from a single strategic corporate fund to a diverse family of funds, some with external LPs, while still leveraging the Sony global brand and reach.

Sony Ventures invests in all stages of emerging technology companies as well as in startups solving global environmental challenges. Through Sony Innovation Fund, Sony Ventures engages with pioneering startups to help fuel the development of disruptive technologies, launch new businesses, and contribute to the environment while seeking return on investment.
