About Eugene John Frantz

Gene Frantz is a General Partner at CapitalG, Alphabet’s independent growth fund, where he has served since the firm’s 2013 founding after thirteen years as a Partner at TPG Capital. He focuses on Series B growth-stage investments primarily in enterprise software, cloud, AI, cybersecurity, TransportationTech, Web3/Crypto, FinTech, and Direct-to-Consumer sectors within the Bay Area. His typical investment range spans $100K to $5.0M with a sweet spot around $1.5M, and he participates in both lead and follow roles across 13 recorded investments. Notable portfolio companies he has backed include Freshworks, which saw CapitalG invest in five rounds totaling roughly $8.7M before its IPO, as well as other prominent enterprise software and cybersecurity firms.

In public discussions, such as a 20VC podcast, he highlights the necessity of combining access with a discerning selection process and notes management teams’ growing reluctance to pursue IPOs amid short fund cycles
