Our Mission

Partners Ryan Roddy and Harrison Valner work at their desks

We're  all about making a real difference. Our mission? To help everyone live their best life by boosting their mental and physical health. We see a big gap in how society deals with health and wellness today – with physical health on the decline and mental health challenges on the rise. But there's good news: technology has the power to change this, and we’re here to back the innovators leading the charge.

We partner with startups that are as passionate about making people's lives better as we are. Partners Harrison Valner and Ryan Roddy tap into their vast network, from investors to industry pros, ensuring our companies get more than just money. They get a partner ready to roll up sleeves and tackle the big issues head-on.

In short, we’re not just investing; we’re on a mission to improve lives through health and technology. By supporting the right companies, we believe we can help pave the way to a healthier, happier society.
