About 제현주

제현주 spent about a decade in finance at places like McKinsey, Credit Suisse, and Carlyle, then stepped away for roughly six years to study money and work from the outside, translating around ten books, writing her own, and co-founding a cooperative where every member got one vote no matter how much money they put in, before returning to investing. Now at Envisioning Partners, she focuses on climate and impact companies, arguing they need funding at every stage, including later, larger rounds to build physical infrastructure, and she pushes back on the idea that impact investing has to mean lower returns, insisting it can match or beat typical market results.

Avg Check Size

Envisioning Partners grew directly out of Yellowdog, an early Korean impact-investing pioneer, and built one of the first funds fully dedicated to climate solutions rather than treating climate as just one part of a broader fund, with corporate LPs like Hanwha Solutions and GS Holdings actively helping source deals and scale portfolio companies. The firm also moved away from running a separate women-only fund and instead embedded a gender lens across all its funds, targeting at least 30% of portfolio companies to be women-founded or women-led, while investing across the U.S., Korea, and Singapore in areas like carbon accounting, battery recycling, and direct air capture.
