Equal Ventures was founded to enable the entrepreneurs transforming society and industry. At the core of our investment approach is a thesis-driven philosophy for investing across markets. Although we are a generalist fund, we allocate much of our research time and efforts to a few key markets that we have developed expertise in. We refer to these as our ‘Majors’.
Each of these Majors has a few characteristics in common, we call these the “4 Cs” — large cataclysmic shifts that are creating opportunities for multiple multi-billion dollar businesses, significant complexity to create a distinct need for a prepared mind, organic connectivity to industry leaders/operators by members of our team and limited competition that suggests a need for more capital. By focusing on Majors that align with the “4 Cs”, we feel we can be a valued partner to founders in these industries more than just capital.
The specific sectors we invest in will evolve over time, but below we’ll highlight our current Majors along with the types of solutions we are excited about in these markets. In addition to these industries, we also have several ‘Minors’; sectors that our team has started ramping research around and that could become Majors for the firm in the future. We’ll share these over time as they become a bigger focus for the firm.
