TOM SOTO BIO

Tom has been in the impact investing game for a long time. He was born and raised in East LA to two of the state’s most well-respected Latino Civil Rights leaders. His dad was Assemblyman Phil Soto, the first Latino elected to the state legislature in 1962. His mom was Nell Soto, she too served the last ten years of her life as a member and leader in the California State Senate. Impact runs through Tom’s blood.

Tom has owned four PE funds, one of which, Craton Equity Partners, he sold to T.C.W., and leads his family investment office, Latimer Partners, LLC with his husband of 19 years, Todd Soto. The focus has been at the intersection of energy, climate tech, carbon monetization, renewable energy, and other Fourth Industrial Revolution driven platforms.

He previously served as Chairman of the New America Alliance, founding Vice Chairman of the LA Clean Tech Incubator, Trustee of the California Science Center, Trustee of the NRDC, and Board Member of the Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation.
