Investment thesis
Sahsen invests in mission-driven organizations that support life on Earth, spanning both for-profit and not-for-profit sectors as a combined strategy to achieve maximum social impact. The firm distinguishes between endeavors best suited to philanthropic grant funding — such as basic research — and those, like translational work and practical implementation of discoveries, that are better scaled through for-profit companies. It seeds and nurtures these enterprises across early stages.
