Ethos Fund

Investing in Pre-Seed Stage (Yet Globally Ambitious) Startups in Vietnam and the US.

Ethos Fund (“Ethos”) was founded by a pair of serial entrepreneurs who want to prove that founders and venture capitalists don’t need to compromise to build transformative companies — that growth is better, faster, and more fun when startups and investors aren’t afraid to be authentic and share the same ethos. 

​

From Southeast Asia to Silicon Alley, our world is marked by unprecedented degrees of multiculturalism, ethnic diversity, social shifts, international collaboration, and technology-driven changes. Third culture innovators — founders who create and define a new ‘third space’ in response to adversities they face while living, learning, and transacting between disparate cultures — are on the rise and at the center of solving humanity’s biggest problems.

​

As third culture individuals ourselves, Ethos understands better than anyone else the powerful forces at work in the world today. We can spot asymmetric opportunities and invest where others hesitate because we aren’t afraid to be authentic and embrace the same ethos as the third culture innovators that we invest in. We hold deeply ingrained convictions that investing in companies led by extraordinary third culture leaders will not only yield more unicorns, but also shape a world in which future generations will thrive, celebrate, and treasure.
