We don't just invest.
We build.

Kuma Capital identifies high-conviction opportunities across industries, takes concentrated positions, and rolls up its sleeves. We operate at the intersection of capital, strategy, and execution — partnering with founders and building from the ground up where we see whitespace.

Every venture under the Kuma umbrella reflects the same thesis: find markets that are underserved, move decisively, and create outsized value through operational excellence.
