About Naseem Sayani

Naseem Sayani co-founded Emmeline Ventures as a multicultural, multigenerational, all-female fund that redirects capital to founders building products around women's purchasing power across health, wealth, and environment, rather than treating women's products as a niche. She brings over two decades of experience across consulting, incubators, and corporate venture capital to back companies that re-wire systems to accelerate women's agency, while simultaneously working to increase women and people of color in fund manager roles and educating first-time women investors about venture as an asset class.

Naseem Sayani's Interests

What they've been talking about across their social media accounts
  • Deep interest in the intersection of Web3 and music, specifically how blockchain technology can empower artists and creators. She actively engages with projects like Nvak Collective and has utilized platforms like sound.xyz to back remixes, viewing this fusion as a lasting trend rather than a passing fad.
  • A focus on the broader spectrum of women's health and Femtech, pushing for innovation that goes beyond just reproductive care. She has organized discussions, such as panels at SXSW, that address the need for solutions across a woman's entire health journey while emphasizing the critical importance of data privacy in these applications.
  • Commitment to reshaping the venture capital landscape to be more ethical and inclusive, moving away from traditional pattern recognition that often excludes diverse founders. She publicly supports the Mensarius Oath for ethical investing and champions the idea of rebuilding the industry to establish a new baseline for who gets funded.
  • Active participation in the NFT space, particularly projects that support women and diverse communities. She shares her personal collection updates from projects like Women Rise, Boss Ladies, and Urban Desi Women, viewing these digital assets as both community builders and stores of value even during market dips.
  • Relatable perspective on the challenges of being a working parent, frequently mentioning the lack of sleep that comes with raising a toddler. She ties this personal experience back to financial goals, expressing excitement about tools like EarlyBird that help parents build generational wealth for their children.
