Cote Capital

Venture Capital and Private Equity PrincipalsNew York, United States2-10 Employees

Breakthroughs in science and engineering are redefining what’s possible in the physical world and ushering in a new industrial revolution. Cote Global is meeting this moment with IP Capital as the third pillar of finance, alongside equity and debt capital. We target late-stage and middle-market companies with proven innovations but undervalued intellectual property. 

Our investments pair patient growth capital with an operating team that protects, commercializes, and enforces rights to intellectual property, unlocking revenue, strengthening competitive position, and driving enterprise value. We embed a dedicated team through an IP Operating Company (or IPCO) structure, converting intellectual property into scalable revenue and long-term strategic control. 

We structure investments so intellectual property becomes a cash-flowing asset through royalties, milestones, secured interests, and QSBS-qualified equity –  without the dilution of equity or restrictive debt, preserving founder control while delivering tax-advantaged returns.

In an AI world where copying IP is accelerated and IP lifecycles compress, companies that lack IP capital and operating capabilities for IP commercialization will be outpaced. Those that master both will succeed. We’re building that future with a new generation of IP capitalists transforming intellectual property into enduring global enterprise value.
