Sentinel Global Announces Close of Inaugural Fund to Back Enterprise Technology Leaders Worldwide

Multi-stage strategy will support high-growth companies across global enterprise technology markets

SAN FRANCISCO, June 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Sentinel Global, a venture capital firm dedicated to connecting visionary founders with real-world adopters, today announced the close of its inaugural fund, Sentinel Fund I, with committed capital totaling $213.5 million. The fund will invest globally in multi-stage enterprise technology companies, with a focus on technologies built for mission-critical performance, regulatory readiness, and scalable deployment across complex systems.

Founded by veteran investor Jeremy Kranz, Sentinel Global was created to close the gap between builders and enterprise adopters. With more than 25 years of experience in global technology investing and 20+ successful IPOs, including iconic companies such as Affirm, Zoom, Coinbase, and DoorDash, Kranz and his team bring a deep understanding of the innovation landscape. They recognize that the next wave of innovation will not only require technical vision, but also strong connection with customers, systems, and the markets where adoption happens.

"Innovation stalls when builders and adopters don't meet," said Jeremy Kranz, Founder and Managing Partner of Sentinel Global. "Our mission is to bridge that divide, connecting startup ambition with the real-world systems that drive enterprise markets. That takes not only capital but also context, conviction, and partnership."

Sentinel's model is rooted in research-driven conviction and deep operational partnership. Through its proprietary research and advisory platform, Sentinel Labs, the firm conducts hands-on research into enterprise readiness, helping startups solve tangible adoption challenges faced by institutions.

The fund targets foundational technologies driving enterprise transformation, including open-computing architectures, interoperable commerce, cybersecurity, and data systems. Sentinel's approach is tailored for global complexity. The team has strong, active relationships with buyers and stakeholders across North America, Europe, Asia, and emerging markets, and views go-to-market support as essential at every stage.

The Sentinel team includes former founders, venture investors, and enterprise operators with decades of experience building and scaling solutions across sectors such as enterprise AI, supply chain innovation, and fintech. This collective background enables a hands-on, research-informed strategy that bridges the worlds of early innovation and enterprise adoption.

"Our goal is to back solutions that are not just visionary but ready for deployment. They must be built to scale, comply, and thrive in the most demanding environments," said Kranz. "Sentinel was built to partner with founders who think globally, prioritize trust and are ready to bring transformational technologies to real world systems."
