The 22 Fund invests in tech-based manufacturing companies to increase their international sales (exports), aiming to create jobs in the U.S. The 22 Fund focuses on including women and BIPOC led firms in their investment portfolio.

The 22 Fund

The 22 is the only one of its kind, investing in high potential women and minority owned clean tech-based manufacturing and exporting companies, with a mission of creating the jobs of the future in underserved communities. By making risk mitigated investments in cash flow positive existing businesses, The 22 will deliver both high ROI and social/economic impact.

With existing, proven, products and markets, these enterprises are often overlooked by traditional investors and find it difficult to scale due to lack of access to growth capital. Study after study have proven that women and minority owned AND exporting manufacturing companies have a greater rate of success. Manufacturing and exports also create the highest impact in low and moderate income (LMI) communities.

With its unique focus, The 22 provides equity, loans and royalty based investments, as well as advisory services and a crucial international network of trade, government and service partners to help enterprises scale globally to their full potential.

“The 22 Fund invests in tech-driven U.S. manufacturing companies, accelerating global reach and fostering high-quality, sustainable jobs within American communities. The VC firm prioritizes partnerships with businesses led by women and BIPOC, recognizing their potential to drive exceptional financial returns while generating substantial social and economic impact. These companies have a hardware component that makes scaling slower, but growth through exporting offsets this.

‘Our impact is investing in women, people of color, and investing in companies in low- and moderate-income communities intentionally,’ said Tracy Gray, managing partner at The 22 Fund.”
