Note from Zecca J. Lehn
We focus primarily on Seed VC Impact US startups aligned with both Social and Sustainable Tech and the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Mission:
The purpose of this Syndicate is to present deals which empower individuals, and align visions as a team, bringing positive lasting impacts. Each deal presented will be based on a blend of available data, and our best judgement. Founders and investors should win together with each new engagement - - if not, there are many more deals to move on to. Companies with strong finance-first social impact drivers, especially with high sales growth / traction are encouraged to connect. My current private portfolio includes both inclusive marketplace and consumer disintermediation seed stage investments with strong moats, aligned with long-term sustainable value creation, and motivated by Founders with the unicorn mindset.

Dealflow
Aiming to syndicate larger deals with $150k+ to reduce SPV costs to investors. If these deals are too small to syndicate initially, I may want to invest my own funds separately with pro-rata, with the prospect of bringing a deal into a later syndicated round.
