Death as a natural part of life
We are a venture capital firm and incubator of death-related companies.
Death is humanity's greatest fear and taboo, leading to a lack of innovation and debate around it.
Why?
In 2020 the pandemic started and the fear of death was everywhere. Millions of people lost their loved ones and neither the funeral industry, nor the world, was prepared for what happened.
Several members of our team lost their loved ones, having an experience that lacked empathy from funeral homes.
That's why we decided to come together and support the transformation of the industry.
Where do we invest in?
​Entrepreneurial ventures that blend technology and new business practices with empathy. We support the creation of a human and efficient entrepreneurial ecosystem.
