Ohio State recently invested tens of millions of dollars into a venture capital firm, despite concern by university officials.

OSU invested roughly $50 million into Drive Capital, which was launched by Mark Kvamme earlier this year.

Drive Capital was co-founded by Kvamme and Chris Olsen. Both were previously partners at Sequoia Capital, a venture capital firm based in California that has backed companies such as Apple, Instagram and Google. Olsen is also a native of Cincinnati.
