New Voices Fund

New Voices Fund, operating as NVF Capital, is a thesis-driven venture capital firm made up of career investors along with former founders and operators. It invests in companies at the intersection of shifting consumer needs, emerging market demand and evolving technology, with a stated focus on category-defining consumer brands, services and the commerce infrastructure that supports them.
