Investment Thesis

Eka Ventures invests in founders creating positive system change by leveraging science, data, and technology to build a better economy. They believe there is an urgent need and unprecedented opportunity to transform how we consume and approach healthcare, shifting from linear, carbon-intensive systems to circular, decarbonized ones, and from reactive treatment-led healthcare to proactive, accessible systems.

What Sets Them Apart

  • Focus on 'Shared Value' combining societal impact with shareholder returns across two interconnected themes: Sustainable Consumption and Consumer Health
  • Emphasis on supporting teams rather than individuals ('Supporting teams, not individuals')
  • Small, experienced team with deep expertise in impact investing and technology commercialization
  • B-Corporation certified, demonstrating commitment to broader stakeholder interests beyond profit
  • Research-focused approach with published research and impact analysis to inform investments
  • Preference for being first institutional investor with hands-on support for portfolio companies
