A new fund for a new future

New Theory Ventures shifts the paradigm to fuse purpose with profit, investing in women and diverse founders at the forefront of conscious living and innovation.



"As a non-white female founder, I've been underfunded, underrepresented, and underestimated. I started New Theory Ventures to invest in women and diverse founders shaping the new landscape of success, because the data is clear: when new voices are amplified, both purpose and profits soar."

- Nikki Eslami, Founder and CEO

what is new theory?

The Rebuilding of the economic order so that purpose and profit compound.


New Theory is an evergreen fund and venture catalyst bolstering the goodness and must-have innovation of founders and their brands. It is the commitment to profit that funds purpose, and purpose that creates profit.

what needs to change?

Only 1.9 percent of venture capital went to women founders in 2022.

Black and Latino founders received just 2.6 percent of venture funding in 2020.
