HistoryToba Capital was founded in late 2012 by software executive and venture capitalist Vinny Smith, using some of the US$850 million in funds he reportedly received from the sale of his share of

in SaaS archiving company Smarsh to Toba Capital.[5] In February 2015, the company invested US$4M in Irvine based True Drinks, Inc. a manufacturer of zero sugar flavored water products.[6] In August,

invested in Provo, Utah-based software maker Grow.com, reportedly Toba's first investment outside of California.[10][11] In September 2016, the company was part of a US$100 million funding round for agriculture startup Indigo Agriculture, reported at the time to be the largest private equity deal in the growing agriculture technology business sector.[12] In March 2017, one of Toba's holdings, software company Alteryx, went public, and as of August 2018 had a market capitalization of US$2.6 billion.[1] In May, the company also exited its position in Codenvy, a developer of the Eclipse Che development platform, by selling to Linux developer RedHat for undisclosed terms.[13] In February 2018, the company invested US$16M in reporting and analytics dashboard software developer Grow.com, and closed a US$5.2M series B funding round with information security company Infocyte.[14][15] In June, the company announced a US$30M investment in contracts analytics firm Seal Software.[16] In August, Toba Capital led a US$6.4M funding round for convenience store analytics provider Skupos.[17] InvestmentsAs of August 2018, the company reported over US$1 billion invested in about 75 companies.[2] Current investments include Deliveroo, FloQast, Paxata, Robinhood, Sauce Labs, ShiftMobility, StellaService, Transifex, and WSO2.[18] Prior investements include Alteryx,[19] Bright,[20]
