Investment thesis
Eka Ventures invests in founders building companies that create positive system change, concentrating on three consumer-led megatrends. The 'Life' theme covers technology improving access and affordability of life-essential products and services. The 'Health' theme focuses on healthcare technology that shifts care from a reactive to a preventative model, enabling earlier detection and treatment of disease. The 'Sustainability' theme targets technology driving resource efficiency, circularity and decarbonisation in the largest consumer industries. As early-stage investors, the firm partners with industry-changing companies and supports founders in realising their vision, backed by a small, dedicated team with deep venture experience.
