STARTUP STUDIO

We fund and co-found disruptive companies

Partnering with a diverse range of founders, the Startup Studio combines ideas, capital, resources, and talent to build the companies of the future.

We build with founders that are as diverse as the customers they serve.

We believe that the greatest innovations come from lived experiences. That's why we build and invest in founders with diverse life, career, and professional experiences who are building the future for women and multicultural consumers.

We love founders from truly diverse backgrounds with unique and deep insight into their customers, unbelievable grit, and hustle, who are building something disruptive and clearly distinct from their competitors.

If you’re driven and passionate about what you’re building, be sure to get on our radar!

Why Startup Studio?

Focus on building

Our team enables founders to focus on creating and building, by simplifying and optimizing the company creation process.

"There has never been a better time to start a company and our mission is to diversify wealth by encouraging people from all backgrounds to choose entrepreneurship. The world will be a better place when more people build the future we want together."
