Jack Selby, a former executive at Thiel Capital, is deepening his footprint in the tech startup scene by tapping into his extensive network in Arizona. Selby heads the venture firm Copper Sky Capital, which recently disclosed in a regulatory filing that it is raising a second fund of $300 million. The new capital will be earmarked for high‑growth companies across artificial intelligence, health tech, and clean energy.
Arizona, often overlooked in favor of Silicon Valley, has become a strategic hub for Selby’s investment thesis. The state’s universities, research labs, and burgeoning entrepreneurial community provide a pipeline of innovative companies that fit Copper Sky Capital’s risk‑adjusted return model. By leveraging these regional connections, Selby has been able to secure early stakes in promising ventures, most notably the visual‑data analytics startup Etched.
Etched, which offers AI‑powered image analysis tools for enterprises, has accelerated its growth since Selby’s involvement. In the past six months the company reported a 45 % increase in its customer base and closed several strategic partnership deals that expand its market reach. Selby praised the founding team’s deep roots in Arizona and the state’s supportive tech infrastructure as key factors behind Etched’s rapid scaling.
The $300 million fund is not limited to Etched; Copper Sky Capital plans to allocate capital across a diversified portfolio that includes biotech breakthroughs, fintech innovations, and even space‑tech ventures. Selby emphasized that the fund’s objective is to deliver long‑term upside for limited partners while managing risk through geographic and sector diversification.
This fundraising milestone underscores Arizona’s rising status as a magnet for venture capital and highlights Selby’s role in championing the region on a global stage. As Copper Sky Capital’s second fund comes to life, it promises to be a catalyst for the next generation of Arizona‑based entrepreneurs seeking to scale their ideas into market‑leading companies.
