About
Plexo Capital is a venture capital firm founded in 2018 by Lo Toney, a former partner at Google Ventures (GV). The firm operates on a unique hybrid model, investing both in emerging venture capital funds and directly in early-stage startups, particularly those led by women and people of color. This strategy allows Plexo to tap into a broader and more diverse deal flow, aiming to generate superior returns while increasing diversity within the venture ecosystem. Plexo Capital manages a $42.5 million fund, with investments from prominent backers like Alphabet, Intel Capital, Cisco Investments, and the Ford Foundation. The firm typically invests $500,000 to $5 million in venture funds and $500,000 to $2 million directly in startups. Some of the notable companies in their portfolio include Blavity, PlayVS, and Wrapbook, a payroll management software company that has since become a unicorn. Plexo’s approach is deeply rooted in the belief that diverse perspectives lead to better investment outcomes, particularly at the seed stage where non-traditional networks can provide unique insights. The firm also emphasizes supporting its portfolio companies by leveraging its extensive network of strategic partners and experts in growth, product development, and customer acquisition. Plexo Capital is based in San Francisco but operates globally, with investments spanning across North America, Africa, and Latin America
