Our Thesis

Our thesis is betting on Gen Z women to build & break in order to create a better and more equitable world. Our focus is on community, consumer, and creator ventures, but are not shy to any sector.

Why Gen Z?

GenZ is an engaged community. They're building what they want to see and build up who they want to see do it. With the rise of ambassadorships, micro-internships, even the importance of a retweet, GenZ wants to show up for how they see the future. They want to be a part of it. We believe that desire to see through a mission is so strong as both followers and founders. It will create the next unicorn companies.
