What Rosten Capital Investments does

Rosten Capital Investments LLC is a privately held investment management firm headquartered in Newport Beach, California, operating since 2021–2022 with a staff of 1-10. The firm runs four distinct investment vehicles: Opportunity Fund I (a long/short hedge fund targeting SPAC market inefficiencies), ThriveWell Fund (a private equity fund focused on small-to-mid-market companies in food, nutrition, health, healthcare, and agriculture), Ripple Fund (a long-only PE-styled fund concentrated in Ripple and blockchain infrastructure), and a separate Blockchain Infrastructure Fund (long-only PE targeting secondary-market private blockchain deals). It also offers a Corporate Capital Raise advisory service helping companies with $100M+ annual revenue raise large capital through equity, debt, or hybrid instruments, with explicit focus on the Indian market where traditional bank lending is capped at approximately 100 crore INR.

The firm's revenue model combines recurring fund management fees (2% annually across all funds) with performance carry (20-25%, depending on the vehicle) and episodic transaction fees from the capital raise service (1% of deal size). Minimum lock-in periods range from 6 months (ThriveWell) to 2 years (Blockchain Infrastructure and Ripple funds). The business is managed by named principals including founder David Rosten, Praneet Sah on the corporate services side, Andrew Hwang on the Ripple Fund, and Chet Rao on the ThriveWell Fund, with all distribution conducted directly through the firm's website and managed engagement.
