Founded in 1998 by Jim Hale, Bob Huret, and Richard Garman, FTV Capital began as FTVentures with a focus on the intersection of financial services and technology.

Over time, the firm expanded its sector focus to include vertical software, enterprise technology and services, and healthcare technology, while maintaining a strong emphasis on financial services[1][2][4].
