Muse Capital is an early-stage venture fund dedicated to redefining how we CARE (women's health, childcare & elderly care), PLAY (gaming, metaverse), and LIVE (wellness and sustainability). By supporting visionary founders, we invest in consumer-tech companies that enhance our daily lives and serve the evolving needs of the future consumer. Muse Capital's superpower is rooted in the team's long-standing relationships with thought leaders and decision-makers in our focus sectors. As a team of global operators with two decades of experience, Muse Capital's specific strengths lie in go-to-market strategies, commercialization, and scaling. 

Led by founding partners Assia Grazioli-Venier and Rachel Springate, Muse Capital leverages its know-how in growth and facilitating strategic partnerships to help entrepreneurs build category-defining companies on a global scale. Their network stems from 20 years of relationships with decision-makers across Fortune 500 companies, major tech firms, investors, sports teams, athletes, and talent agencies. They have the network and execution ability to get deals done, providing real value to the entrepreneurs they back.

Muse Capital takes a conscious capitalism approach, advocating for diversity as a driver of returns with 70% of its 60+ portfolio companies diverse-founded. Notable successes include exits like Clarity Money (acquired by Goldman Sachs), Mahmee (Series A led by Goldman Sachs), Midi (Series A led by Google Ventures), and Eli Health (patented at-home hormone testing). Finally, as a female-led team of conscious capitalists, Muse Capital is a staunch advocate for diversity as a better business, and proud to have a 70% female-founded/diverse portfolio. 

Muse Capital backs sectors redefining how we CARE, PLAY & LIVE, shaping the consumer experience for the next decade.

Cofertility is transforming the landscape of egg freezing and egg donation with an innovative model that bridges these two services. Their approach allows individuals to freeze their eggs while concurrently supporting families struggling with infertility through egg donation.
 
By radically restructuring the costs associated with egg freezing, Cofertility aims to make this option more accessible.  The company was founded by a team with first-hand experience navigating fertility challenges. They recognized the need for a new paradigm in egg donation, which has traditionally involved anonymity and compensation.
 
Through Cofertility's @freezebyco program, clients who meet eligibility requirements can freeze their eggs at no cost by donating half to the egg donor pool, aligning with guidelines from the American Society for Reproductive Medicine.
 
"We're uniting egg freezing and egg donation because these services are intrinsically linked," says Lauren Steingold Makler, Cofertility's co-founder and CEO, who previously founded Uber Health.

As part of our commitment to female-founded companies, we want to support founders like Lauren Steingold Makler, Halle Tecco, MPH, MBA, and Arielle Spiegel disrupting the future of CARE.

Seven years ago we officially “launched” our baby, Muse Capital to the world. Fast forward to today: from an angel fund to two funds and 50+ investments later… amidst navigating every women’s issue under the sun between us, beating breast cancer, having kids, and enduring skepticism as non-traditional venture capital investors... Despite countless rejections, and incredible yes’s that have allowed us to invest in companies that should exist our hearts beam with pride finally seeing our efforts and the entrepreneurs we backed years ago becoming the stars this world needs, creating companies that truly make the world a better place and make money.
 
For us, it’s not about the fluffy story and the promise but the results. If we succeed, so do our entrepreneurs, as more capital in women's hands means more capital for diverse founders and companies.
 
Muse Capital is an early-stage venture fund dedicated to redefining how we CARE, PLAY & LIVE. By supporting visionary founders, we invest in consumer-tech companies that enhance our daily lives and serve the evolving needs of the future consumer.

Our very own Assia Grazioli-Venier wrote this piece for Sports Business Journal at the start of the year, on why investing in women's healthcare is key to the growth and success of women's sports. 

“The commercialization of women’s sports depends on improved athlete performance outcomes to meet growing audience entertainment expectations. As it stands, female athletes are nowhere close to their full potential because knowledge is relatively limited on how their bodies perform in sport. Women were regularly excluded from clinical trials until 1993, when Congress passed an inclusion law. This lack of participation hampered our understanding of female-specific health issues and put us far behind the ball in terms of on-field performance. Even today it is estimated that under 10% of all exercise science studies focus exclusively on women. Addressing this disparity is mandatory for industry growth.“

She discusses our investment thesis at Muse Capital, showcasing our commitments to companies like #elihealth, #Mahihealth and #Cofertility,  along with our advisory work at #MuseSport. We're proud to support initiatives like #Washingtonspirit, SailGP, and more. Leading investments such as Midi Health reaffirm our belief that prioritizing women's health leads to success for all.
