Investment Thesis

Studio Investments is mission-driven to fuel companies that combine profit with job creation. They specifically seek founders obsessed with growing human capital rather than replacing it. The firm operates as a matchmaker for the next economy, providing not just capital but also intellectual honesty, dedicated time, and hands-on business building support to founders with viable purposes.

What Sets Them Apart

Explicit focus on job creation through technology adoption rather than automation-driven displacement
Hands-on operating partnership model with dedicated time assets and board participation
Industry-specific expertise in consumer brands, retail, and technology
Commitment to 'positive terms' that evaluate company culture, diversity, inclusion, equity, and sustainability beyond business metrics
Documented pledge to donate at least 5% of proceeds upon exit to charity
