Our society is confronted with fundamental challenges: an aging population; an antiquated education system; a shortage of skilled blue-collar labor; inefficient, analogue procedures within our education and healthcare systems; a rising prevalence of mental health conditions; and pervasive economic inequality.
We commit to investing in outstanding social impact startups that actively address these substantial societal challenges. We believe that growth and impact symbiotically reinforce each other and accelerate on a broader scale. We are convinced that innovative, technology-driven solutions are ready for implementation in various areas, including retirement homes, hospitals, care facilities, educational institutions, and within peoples’ homes. Our investment strategy follows a human-centric approach, placing emphasis on people with chronic diseases, senior citizens, children, families, and marginalized groups.
