Manatt Venture FundThe Manatt Venture Fund is an investment fund that focuses on participation in promising companies—frequently in conjunction with our venture capital and private equity clients. Since its founding in 2000, the Manatt Venture Fund has invested in more than 100 companies and funds. While our portfolio companies and funds cover a range of industries, we typically focus on digital media and technology.
Our investments fall into three categories of opportunity: 1. In client companies, often in their early “seed to Series A” rounds of funding. 2. As a limited partner or member of our client venture capital and private equity funds. 3. Alongside our fund clients in their portfolio companies. This page shows a sampling of our recent industry investments.

Technology and Manatt DigitalNavigating a new landscape Changes in technology and consumer demand have fundamentally altered the marketplace. Delivering content in a manner that consumers want and finding the best way to deliver and monetize the content across different platforms are major challenges.
With the globalization of financing, production, distribution and licensing, you need the right mix of business savvy and legal expertise to guide you in this new high-tech environment.
The edge of risk and opportunity Companies routinely walk a tightrope between legal risk and commercial reward. Given the lack of legal precedent and a rapidly changing landscape, blazing new paths while staying within the legal bounds requires legal, regulatory and strategic business counsel that will protect you and help you stand out in a crowded market.
Helping you play to win You’re in the business of innovation. And so are we. In a world of intense competition for new customers and commercial advantage, we’re known for our ability to create and implement winning strategies for our clients.
Manatt Digital Manatt Digital provides consulting services across the digital world. Our clients are all seeking traction in a rapidly shifting marketplace, where technologies—and the opportunities they give rise to—are often impermanent. We work with organizations at every stage of their growth to articulate their strategies, identify the right partners, target the right investors and arrange the relationships that present the most viable path to success.
We’re the only integrated legal practice and digital media consultancy in the country, so we can help you identify where you are vulnerable and where you can create value.
