"The best way to predict the future is to create it."
We believe financial returns and societal returns can exist together. We are here to create positive outcomes for society and positive returns for our organization.
Creating Positive Outcomes
“You don't have to be an impact fund to have an impact. You don't have to be a nonprofit to support causes you care about. You don't have to be a charity to give back. You can be a returns first venture capital fund that serves a higher order purpose and generates a triple bottom line.”
- Maria Velissaris, Yooney Advisor and GP of the largest women’s fund in the world.
Yooney is a returns first venture capital fund that serves a higher order purpose: helping people achieve their dreams—both bigger and cleaner. These endeavors have a ripple effect on our world.
Our mission is simple: we invest in companies that provide access to high growth innovation in clean manufacturing and for the built world. We focus on innovations that effect our vital city infrastructures to change lives for the better. And we believe that when people are given these basic essentials, they can truly flourish. We aim for those investments to bring returns on investment that will help us fund our mission even further.
We have structured partnerships, distribution deals, and contracts that have rapidly accelerated the growth of our portfolio companies. By intermediating these two groups—our corporate LPs gain access to innovation while our portfolio companies gain access to distribution channels—we are able to bring together the power of profit with purpose.
