About Conscience VC

Conscience VC was founded with the mission to generate a positive and scalable impact on the world by partnering with technical founders. We are an early-stage investment firm backing science that empowers humanity.

We believe the future vitality of humanity and the economy will depend upon scientific and technical advances being funded into existence. We see our partnership with founders as a mechanism to more directly commercialize technical breakthroughs.

Note: We write 1st checks for founders. We love believing in and supporting founders early.

We actively invest in:

1. Pre-seed and seed rounds.
2. Science-led, IP-driven, and/or technically defensible companies. More recently, we have been focused on biotech, healthcare, and wellness.

More specifically, these areas include, but are not limited to: cell/gene therapy, precision and personalized medicine, epigenetic reprogramming, organoid technology leading to enhanced therapeutic benefit, RNA therapeutics, quantified self / functional health / wellness / continuous monitoring, longevity, microbiome health, psychedelics, science-backed mental health, autoimmune disease management, women’s health and wellness, food as medicine, infant health and wellness, food security, synbio, reproductive aging and family planning, and early disease detection.
