Calm/Storm Ventures

Calm/Storm Ventures is a boutique venture capital firm that invests in purpose-driven founders who are improving life, health, and well-being. They focus on HealthTech, including digital health, well-being, prevention, and care, spanning both B2B and B2C startups. They aim to generate both impact and financial returns. Their portfolio covers areas like fertility, AI-enabled infrastructure, mental health, clinical decision support, insurtech, and SaaS tools for healthcare professionals. They operate as a super-early stage investor, typically participating in the first fundraising round. They welcome applications even from founders with incomplete co-founder teams or pitch decks, emphasizing an early engagement approach. Calm/Storm Ventures also underscores its commitment to diversity and equal opportunities, actively supporting underrepresented minorities within their own team and portfolio companies, believing that diverse teams achieve superior results. They claim to be the most active HealthTech investor in Europe since 2020, building a prominent HealthTech portfolio with over 75 companies. The firm's investment approach draws inspiration from the analogy of sailing, viewing entrepreneurship as a continuous storm. They provide support and expertise to founders, helping them navigate challenges and achieve success. The firm's "Supporting Partners" are experienced entrepreneurs who offer guidance, and their portfolio founders form a collaborative community, supporting each other's goals.
