Notable Investments
Acequia Capital is a partnership and distributed network led by former senior Microsoft strategy executives, notably founder Hank Vigil and Charlie Songhurst, giving it an unusually deep background in global platform strategy and M&A compared to typical VC funds run by ex-founders or bankers. The firm operates as a "partnership collective" that systematically co-invests with top global funds across AI and Web3/crypto, positioning itself as a technical frontier specialist with an unusually strong hit rate as an early backer of five unicorn companies.
