Working Capital Fund

Working Capital Fund is an early-stage venture fund investing in solutions that address inequity and economic injustice for marginalized workers through supply chain transformation. The Working Capital Fund was established in 2017 with a unique mission and a highly-differentiated thesis about how to support systemic improvements in respect for labor rights. At Working Capital, we identify opportunities to accelerate the development and deployment of innovative, market-based solutions to meet the growing corporate need to protect vulnerable workers and source responsibly. To do this, we invest in early-stage market catalyzing innovations that improve worker outcomes by accelerating greater supply chain accountability and visibility. Working Capital Fund enables businesses to respond and implement operational change with rigor and at scale, initiating a world where supply chains work for everyone. Working Capital Fund was initially incubated by Humanity United, and founded by The Omidyar Group, a diverse collection of independent organizations and initiatives.
