Investment Thesis

Unrest invests in the next generation of founders determined to leave the world better than they found it. They believe that businesses can’t sustain themselves by ‘burning, drilling, pumping, deforesting and mining’ their way into consumer households. Instead, they support founders building companies that are both profitable and impactful from day one, with genuine brands built on the right moral framework.
