A 'gap-closing' investment thesis: backing founders explicitly building companies that close gaps of access and opportunity for low-income communities and communities of colour, on the belief that this can be pursued as core business strategy rather than philanthropy and can deliver strong financial returns without a concessionary trade-off.
