Investment thesis
Rubio is an impact venture fund providing early-stage growth capital to founders reshaping industries where profit and purpose align. Its investing is organized around two thematic areas: 'People Power', focused on strengthening social cohesion through wellbeing, education, and inclusion; and 'Planet Paradise', focused on net-zero transitions in energy, industry, and agrifood.

Distinctively, Rubio ties 100% of its performance fees to externally validated, quantifiable impact targets, aligning its financial and impact goals.
