Bow Capital, located in Silicon Valley, USA, is a global venture investment firm established in 2016. Vivek Ranadiv?, the owner of the NBA team Sacramento Kings, is the founder and chairman of the board.


Bow Capital conducts various investment projects based on a close collaborative relationship with the University of California system, which consists of 10 campuses, 6 medical facilities and hospitals, and 3 national research institutes.


Hico Capital and Bow Capital share common views on perspectives and investment philosophies regarding future technologies. They recognize that software and artificial intelligence (AI) are rapidly transforming traditional industries such as financial services, transportation and logistics, and healthcare, while creating new opportunities in diverse fields including climate management, digital business, sports, and entertainment.


Based on this shared understanding, the two companies plan to combine their investment experience, networks, and systems to provide differentiated and diverse added value, including investments in early-stage technology companies. Choi Seong-hwan, Head of Business at SK Networks, will serve as an advisor to support investment sourcing and review.



An SK Networks official emphasized, "Hico Capital will not only strengthen its investment capabilities through the partnership with Bow Capital but also establish a foundation to expand its global investment scope beyond the early stages."
