Our Mission
We are in the business of investing in the future of mobility and driving innovation in adjacent industries by offering resources and expertise to entrepreneurs and visionaries across core technologies and disciplines.
As the $800 million investment arm of Toyota Motor Corporation, our aim is to broaden the group’s global reach and accelerate innovation by investing in exceptional growth-stage ventures.
Woven Capital and Toyota share a common goal: discover and develop groundbreaking technologies that will help people all over the world lead happier, healthier, richer lives.
We invite you to partner with us and gain access to the world’s largest platform for mobility. For explorers, disruptors and innovators seeking early-stage funding, we encourage you to visit our colleagues at Toyota Ventures, Toyota’s standalone early-stage venture capital firm.
Capital is only the starting point
What gets us up in the morning? Building up and investing in technologies that will drive the future. We look years ahead at what we think will unfold, but also stop to ask, “What can we build now?”
When we back a startup, we don’t write a check and step away. We take an active role by connecting portfolio companies to our global network and in-house experts to refine ideas, provide guidance, build prototypes and accelerate global scaleup.
Through open collaboration and investment, combined with Toyota's own innovation projects, we hope to realize the promise of technology in solving the world’s most difficult challenges.
