Our Why
We launched Fund I in 2021 driven by a simple conviction: female tech founders were and continue to be systematically underfunded, despite consistently outperforming their peers.
Our commitment to changing that has never wavered.
As investors, we hold real power to shape what gets built in the world.
We choose to deploy that capital behind gender-diverse teams, not as an act of charity, but because the data is clear - they deliver stronger returns.
That combination of financial performance and meaningful impact is what ALIAVIA Ventures was built for, and it remains the lens through which every investment decision is made.
We at ALIAVIA are determined to have a positive impact on the funding gap.
Fund I was about proving our thesis……
