Luke Tubergen is the Founder and CEO of Tubergen Ventures, his personal early-stage investment platform founded in 2015, and serves as Co-Founder and Managing Partner of The Ember Company (formerly Ember Fund), where he focuses on consumer brands. His investment thesis targets seed and pre-seed stages primarily in the consumer and fintech sectors across the United States, though he remains open to opportunities beyond these stages. Tubergen typically makes 3–5 investments annually through his personal platform, acting as an active angel investor and advisor rather than specifying a fixed check size or lead/follow role. Notable portfolio companies include Acorns, Naadam, and Fig Loans, alongside newer investments such as Harvest, Outbound Baby, and New Archive. A distinctive point of view is that his Christian faith shapes his approach to risk, reward, stewardship, and impact, driving him to invest to “help build a better world” while generating meaningful returns. He emphasizes relational and inspirational engagement with founders, offering capital alongside hands-on guidance during the earliest phases of company building.
