The '''Canopy Group''' is an American investment and property management firm founded by [[Ray Noorda]] in 1995 through the [[Noorda Family Trust]]. It is headquartered in [[Lindon, Utah]]. At various times it has consisted of, or been known as, '''Canopy Technologies''', '''Canopy Properties''', and '''Canopy Ventures'''.

The Canopy Group served as the [[Company (law)|parent company]] of various start-up technology companies. It was one of the first venture capital firms in the Utah area and, investing in over a hundred such companies, became a pioneer in the Utah high-technology space. One of the most well-known companies it invested in was [[The SCO Group]]. Canopy divested itself of SCO in 2005 with the settlement of the Yarro case.  

In 2011, Canopy's technology venture arm was purchased by [[Signal Peak Ventures]].<ref>{{Cite web |date=2011-08-24 |title=Signal Peak Floats New Fund |url=https://www.institutionalinvestor.com/article/2bsypiom64ostjyib3rb4/innovation/signal-peak-floats-new-fund |access-date=2025-02-19 |website=Institutional Investor |language=en}}</ref> Today, Canopy provides real estate and rental space to high-tech companies.
