Investment thesis
Able Partners invests in early-stage consumer companies building brands centered on 'positive living' that make daily life healthier, happier, and more meaningful. The firm targets ventures narrowing what it calls 'The Wellness Gap' — the growing divergence between economic growth and stagnating or declining measures of physical and mental wellbeing. Its portfolio spans mental health, digital and preventive health, women's and family health, better-for-you food and beverage, personal care and beauty, caregiving, and biotech, reflecting a broad consumer-health and wellness focus led by partners with backgrounds as both investors and operators in the category.
