Khosla Ventures to raise its second seed fund for high risk-high return projects

Reports point to the likelihood of venture capital firm Khosla Ventures raising another seed fund of an undisclosed amount. The group’s fourth fund of $1.05 billion has already closed and had been used to invest in internet technology, cleantech ventures, and mobile technologies. Khosla Ventures has been known to use an investment strategy geared towards investing in “high risk, high gain” companies…so what does this new fund mean for the cleantech industry?

Khosla Ventures upholds that it does not intend to back away from making investments into clean technology and the industry’s entrepreneurs although their partners have noticed a decline in pitches from innovators in this sphere. Partners at this firm remain optimistic about cleantech and are still finding worthwhile investments.

Managing Partner, Andrew Chung will be giving the opening keynote speech at Clean Technology Investment World Asia 2012 taking place in Singapore on 27-30 June, and will be speaking on how Khosla Ventures is “Reinventing the future of energy through clean technology investment.”
