Our Thesis

TWO MAJOR INFLECTION POINTS

UpLevel Impact Fund I is a venture impact fund investing at this critical convergence. As women gain wealth and decision-making power, demand grows for tools that help us manage the cognitive load: the often-invisible tasks of remembering and coordinating for everyone around us. 

UpLevel backs companies that leverage AI and other advanced tech for women to reclaim time and achieve more. We provide strategic capital and hands-on support while incubating ideas the market overlooks. 

Eden Simmer, former Global Head of Equities at one of the world’s largest asset managers, launched UpLevel to ensure women are not just participants in the AI revolution, but the founders and investors who define it. 

“Only a fraction of venture capital funds women-oriented solutions and women founders. We believe that gap is the investment opportunity. UpLevel is the platform that supports founders with patient and conscience-driven capital to create breakthroughs for women.”
— Eden Simmer

When the load lifts,
what returns
is not just
productivity. 

It is a life
reinfused with
possibility & purpose.
