Illumen Capital

Illumen Capital is an impact fund of funds addressing systemic inequity by reducing racial and gender bias in investing.

Working closely with the world’s leading social psychologists at Stanford SPARQ, we combine investment capital with evidence-based tools and training designed to reduce implicit racial and gender bias in order to unlock latent return and multiply impact.

We believe an inclusive and optimal asset management industry will be the cornerstone of an equal and equitable future.

Less bias. Better returns. One investment.
