Pegasus Tech Ventures, a Silicon Valley-based global venture capital firm and leading provider of Venture Capital-as-a-Service (VCaaS) solutions, today announced that it has surpassed $300 million in new corporate venture capital commitments across five funds established during the first half of 2026, underscoring the accelerating adoption of corporate venture capital among global enterprises.
As companies navigate rapid technological change driven by artificial intelligence, robotics, automation, cybersecurity and advanced manufacturing, corporate venture capital has become an increasingly important strategy for accessing innovation, identifying emerging technologies and building long-term partnerships with startups. The continued growth of Pegasus’ Venture Capital-as-a-Service platform reflects this broader shift, as more corporations seek experienced partners to establish and manage dedicated venture capital funds.
Over the past decade, Pegasus Tech Ventures has helped corporations around the world launch and manage venture capital funds through its VCaaS model, providing end-to-end support across fund formation, investment strategy, startup sourcing, due diligence, portfolio management and strategic collaboration. By removing the complexity of building an in-house venture capital organization, Pegasus enables corporate partners to focus on innovation while leveraging the firm’s global investment platform and startup ecosystem.
The five funds established during the first half of 2026 span a diverse range of industries, including food and beverage, software, manufacturing and advanced technologies. Together, they represent more than $300 million in new capital commitments and reflect the growing recognition that venture investing is no longer reserved for technology companies, but is becoming an essential component of corporate innovation strategies across industries.
“Corporate venture capital has evolved from a competitive advantage to a strategic imperative,” said Anis Uzzaman, Founder and CEO of Pegasus Tech Ventures. “Innovation is moving faster than ever, and corporations recognize that many of tomorrow’s breakthrough technologies are being developed by startups. Through our Venture Capital-as-a-Service model, we help companies build world-class venture programs that provide access to emerging technologies, strategic partnerships and long-term value creation.”
Pegasus has seen growing interest from corporations looking to complement their internal research and development efforts with external innovation. Rather than viewing startups solely as acquisition targets or vendors, companies are increasingly using corporate venture capital to identify disruptive technologies earlier, collaborate with entrepreneurs and gain insights into rapidly evolving markets.
With more than 40 funds under management and investments in over 300 companies worldwide, Pegasus Tech Ventures has built one of the world’s largest Venture Capital-as-a-Service platforms. The firm’s portfolio includes industry-leading companies across artificial intelligence, enterprise software, aerospace, mobility, healthcare and deep technology, while its global Startup World Cup platform connects entrepreneurs, investors and corporations in 200 cities across six continents.
