Andre Mann co-founded Sovereign's Capital — one of the original faith-driven venture capital and private equity firms, alongside Henry Kaestner and Luke Roush. The firm was born when Kaestner's company Bandwidth was rejected 40 times by VCs for the founders' faith commitment. That rejection inspired them to build a fund that embraces faith-driven entrepreneurs. Sovereign's Capital now has an $85+ company portfolio including AI companies. Mann is the original faith-capital infrastructure builder.
