About Adaptation Ventures
Adaptation Ventures is an early-stage venture capital firm that invests in next-generation companies building disability, neurodivergence and health technology to maximize human independence and potential. These are must-have solutions that serve 2B people with $18T in spending power, but often unlock even larger markets through the curb cut effect. Think electric toothbrushes, audiobooks, subtitles, and curb cuts in sidewalks: created for people with disabilities but used by almost everyone daily because they are at the intersection of necessity and universal appeal.
