Indy-based High Alpha Capital launches new $110M fund
We know that a lot of elements go into the formation of a startup ecosystem. When your city is outside of the major coastal tech centers, it takes a deliberate effort to get such a system off the ground. For Indianapolis, Indiana, it started with the creation of ExactTarget in 2000. When that company was sold to Salesforce for $2.5 billion in 2013, it helped bring a bushel of cash into the startup system.
Today, the venture capital firm that connects back to that ExactTarget acquisition, High Alpha Capital, announced a new $110 million fund. The company concentrates on B2B SaaS startups. Kristian Andersen, partner and co-founder at High Alpha sees the fund in the context of the pandemic and the changes it has brought to how businesses are run.

INDIANAPOLIS (Inside INdiana Business) — Indianapolis-based High Alpha Capital has closed on a $110 million fund to help support new entrepreneurs who want to make their mark with cloud-based technology. This was the third fund the venture has launched and together, they account for $215 million.
The software-focused venture firm says the new fund will allow it to invest in pre-Seed, seed and Series A rounds.
“High Alpha Capital III provides us with an incredible opportunity to further our mission of supporting early-stage software entrepreneurs who are shaping the future through technology. We pride ourselves on bringing entrepreneurial empathy and an operator’s mindset to each portfolio company that our team is privileged to support,” said High Alpha Managing Partner Scott Dorsey, who leads the organization with Kristian Andersen, Eric Tobias and Mike Fitzgerald.

Already struggling to balance the demands of work and home, they were suddenly confronted last spring with having to add all-day child care and education monitoring to their long list of duties.Â
The result? âThe first word that comes to mind is exhaustion,â says Aleka Bilan, a working mom in Bend, Oregon.Â
Why We Wrote This
For a year millions of working parents, especially moms, have been stretched to the limits by a stay-home swirl of kids and work. Finally policymakers may be listening.
The challenges were felt so broadly that companies and politicians began to pay attention. Some corporations are reexamining their paid sick leave and flexible work policies. Business groups such as the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the Business Roundtable want to target federal funds for child care.Â
