Curate Capital invests in companies by women for women. We invest in influential women with strong personal brands who are building companies that address the pain points of the female consumer. Practically speaking, that often takes the form of CPG companies, but we opportunistically look across industry lines to find companies that fit this "by women for women" criteria. We are "early, but not too early" investors. We invest in de-risked pre-Series A companies with demonstrated relevant traction. Founders seek us out as their preferred investors, as we offer an approachable, active alternative to traditional venture capital. We practice influential investing. Our LP network is chock-full of influential people (over 70% women to date) who have built successful businesses, have extensive networks, and bring much value to the table for our portfolio of companies. In fact, we actually are pioneering the idea of online influencers as investors. A significant portion of our capital raised to date has come from women who identify as influencers, have large social media followings, and have proven they can drive results for our portfolio companies. If you are looking for a vibrant community of people challenging the norms of the traditional venture capital model, join us at Curate Capital!
