Zeal Capital Partners
Nasir Qadree created Zeal Capital Partners as a mission driven venture capital firm seeking to partner with diverse management teams who are building tech-enabled, early-stage businesses. The firm’s key competitive differentiator is its Inclusive Investing strategy, which positions the firm to capture under-tapped opportunity from diverse management teams and helps them outperform. Zeal looks for systems change and impact, seeking to identify companies that narrow inequities, turbocharge economic mobility, and see financial and social impact as inextricably linked. Initiatives like the Barclays Black Formation Initiative, a partnership with Barclays focused on emerging founders to address the lack of capital invested with Black founders, have helped cement Zeal’s influence as a leader in the diverse manager ecosphere.
