New Cycle Capital, LLC

New Cycle Capital is an early-stage venture capital firm. We take a research driven, thematic approach to investing. The General Partners identify a market opportunity that we believe is ripe for entrepreneurial innovation and then look for the best ideas and people within it. We may spend one month or a year investigating a particular sector. We will meet top executives and the best newly emerging companies. We will meet with companies in adjacent markets. Sometimes we will make an investment or two in a particular space and sometimes we will not. Within each sector, we will invest in capital-efficient businesses in the first round of institutional capital, often as the only fund alongside angel investors. Our past themes include: Consumer Debt Renewable Energy Finance Energy Efficiency Hispanic Financial services to lower income populations Water Conservation BioChar The Green Consumer Carbon As a team, we have invested in eight companies together, and over 20 in our careers. We also align ourselves with entrepreneurs who are passionate about their company's mission and motivated by a desire to affect positive change in the world. We believe that companies that combine strong economic opportunity with an inspired company mission have a competitive advantage, and that by investing in these companies we can deliver outsized returns for our investors.
