Overview
Fairview Capital, founded in 1994, is one of the largest minority-owned investment management firms in the U.S. and the most established allocator to emerging and diverse venture managers. It runs venture fund-of-funds programs and manages emerging-manager separate accounts for major public pensions — making it a critical institutional bridge for first- and second-time GPs who would otherwise never reach pension capital. Fairview publishes regular research on the diverse and women-led manager landscape, and its diligence process is a genuine institutional credential.
