Zaffre Investments

About the fund

Zeal Capital Partners' Fund II, which closed at $82 million in May, focuses on early-stage venture investments in North America across financial technology, employment pathways, and health equity sectors. The fund specifically targets diverse founders operating in these trillion-dollar markets, emphasizing inclusivity as a core investment principle. As the firm's second fund, it represents a significant expansion of Zeal's investment capacity, tripling its assets under management within a five-year period. The fund primarily serves institutional investors and continues Zeal's commitment to fostering financial inclusion, improving health outcomes, and creating employment opportunities through its portfolio companies. Its early-stage venture approach encompasses seed and Series A investments that align with both financial returns and diversity-centered impact objectives.
