TMV is a New York-based, early-stage venture capital firm founded in 2016 by Marina Hadjipateras and Soraya Darabi, formerly known as Trail Mix Ventures until its 2020 rebrand to reflect its mission-driven philosophy. The firm invests in purpose-driven startups across the care economy, future of work, logistics and mobility, sustainable solutions, and education technology, primarily in the U.S. with some Europe capacity, targeting pre-seed through Series A stages. Typical check sizes range from $500,000 to $1.5 million, with TMV frequently leading or co-leading rounds to secure at least 10% ownership. Notable portfolio companies include Kindbody, Parsley Health, Cityblock Health, and Classtag, many of which are women- or minority-owned. TMV distinguishes itself through a “triple bottom-line” investment thesis that prioritizes social and environmental impact alongside financial returns, backing founders who address systemic inequities. The firm emphasizes investing in people first—founders with integrity, grit, and purpose—and maintains a 90% follow-on investment rate, signaling deep commitment to portfolio growth.
