Little Green Bamboo is a company that focuses on addressing unresolved female health conditions through investment and entrepreneurship. The team is composed of professionals with diverse backgrounds in bioengineering, pharmacy, medicine, cell biology, materials science, law, and data science, among others. They emphasize a problem-solving approach based on mutual compassion, understanding, support, and honesty, rather than traditional legal or corporate governance methods.

Little Green Bamboo

Our hope is to support and nurture academic innovation ecosystems, and to back the right founders to help bridge the gap between the world's biggest problems and most innovative solutions. 

Our start was in 2019. However, we “unlaunched” because we saw that good people with good missions did not follow through, and we didn't understand why and were concerned that we may do the same. So we devoted a year to interview founders, investors, and stakeholder to analyze the approaches of different investment organizations, and strengthen our internal process to make sure we stayed true to our mission. We created six principles, and 25 mandates to reduce the human biases and mixed incentives that are commonplace in investing. 

Our nurturing principles:
- Analyze through developmental psychology;
- Speak through the Socratic method;
- Feel through Buddhist compassion.
Our investment principles:
- Distribute decision making and rely on diversity;
- Date to marry and think in decades;
- Markets drive success, and people drive failure.
