Investment Thesis

Eka Ventures invests in founders creating positive system change by backing companies delivering outlier impact and reshaping the world's largest industries to better serve humanity, protect the planet, and be more economically productive and profitable. They focus on three consumer-led mega trends: Life (technology enabling better access to life-essential products and services), Health (healthcare technology enabling early detection and treatment of disease), and Sustainability (technologies driving efficiency, circularity, and decarbonisation in large consumer industries). Their investment style provides support and challenge to founders without directing.
