Arpit Bansal: Using Venture Capital to Provide for our Core Human Needs

📍Singapore. Back in 2011, Marc Andreessen said that software was eating the world. And it did. Now we are on the dawn of a new area in venture capital and Blue Ashva Capital, a firm based out of Singapore, is leading the way. Arpit Bansal, entrepreneur turned venture captialist, describes the transition as a shift in investing from bits to atoms. His firm invests in companies trying to improve aspects of our core human needs like our health, food, energy sources, and financial stability. Throughout history these sectors of the economy have been viewed as low-return, impact investments, but Blue Ashva is proving that they are investments that come with a enormous impact.  UN Sustainable Development Goals: 3 · Good Health & Well-Being, 7 · Affordable & Clean Energy
