Our network of venture studios provides the rescue capital, expertise and support that startups need to thrive.
Rescue Capital
We collaborate with founders and investors to revitalize promising early-stage startups that have not yet reached their potential. We can deploy capital discreetly and within days - then incubate teams in our network of studios for hands-on support.
New Venture Creation
Our venture studio teams work alongside entrepreneurs and seasoned executives to prototype, validate, seed and launch startups addressing human and planetary needs in various industries. New venture concepts are created in-house and in partnership with universities, investors, and experts.
What Makes Us Different
Human + Planetary Health: We build and invest in companies that improve human and planetary health – because they’re inextricably linked. A majority of our investments are earthshots, not moonshots.
Rescue Capital: We provide capital to good companies facing challenges raising seed and Series A funding in this difficult market. And we do it discreetly. Our team brings decades of venturesome turnaround experience to our portfolio. We co-create and execute winning strategies for long-term value.
Collaborative Network: We are the first and only network of venture studios across the U.S. All of our studio teams and portfolio companies collaborate on everything from GTM to hiring and beyond.
Patient Capital: Backed by a family office, we understand growth can take time. We can also bring in like-minded family offices and top-tier VCs for subsequent growth capital.
Portfolio Ownership: We provide founding team with meaningful equity in both their business and in all studio portfolio companies. Founding teams often receive anti-dilution protection up to Series A funding.
Opportunity Zones: Our studios are in economic opportunity zones near research universities and concentrations of talent. This creates tax benefits for founding teams working in our locations.
