Superorganism

Superorganism describes itself as the first venture firm dedicated to biodiversity. The firm backs pre-seed and seed startups that can bend the curve on nature loss while building durable businesses, typically investing alongside other funds rather than leading rounds. Its thesis groups opportunities into three categories. The first covers companies transforming the industries that drive extinction, including agriculture, cities, pollution, invasive species and the materials economy. The second targets the intersection of climate and biodiversity, spanning forests, oceans, soil, wildfire, adaptation and the monitoring, reporting and verification of natural systems. The third backs enabling technologies such as artificial intelligence, genomics, biomanufacturing, remote sensing, robotics and fintech with downstream applications for conservation. The founders argue that the old assumption that nature and economic progress must always conflict is outdated, and that startups can reshape industries so that humans and ecosystems benefit together. Co-founder Kevin Webb has described the firm as the closest thing to a conservationist on a cap table. Superorganism closed a debut fund of 25.9 million dollars in January 2026, had backed roughly 20 startups at that point with plans to reach about 35, and has pledged 10 percent of firm profits to future conservation efforts.
