One Way Ventures believes that immigrant-founded companies represent an undervalued opportunity in the venture capital market. They invest in exceptional immigrant founders because immigration and entrepreneurship are both irreversible journeys requiring resilience and determination. The firm’s core conviction is that immigrant founders repeatedly outperform, supported by data showing that while immigrants comprise only 13% of the U.S. population, they have founded or co-founded 55% of America’s billion-dollar startups. Their investment approach is rooted in the belief that immigrant success is not priced into the market.
