One Love Capital is a purpose‑built venture platform proving that mission‑led companies can outperform. With Richard Nelson Cho, CFA at the helm — blending finance, strategy, product, and values — we deliver both impact and returns.
One Love Capital is a venture fund focused on early‑stage (pre‑seed and Series A) B Corp‑certified or certifiable companies, where mission is the core and profit is the fuel for scaling social and environmental impact. We believe that purpose‑led companies deliver superior, durable returns while driving measurable positive change.
This is where mission and culture are shaped. Our dual focus allows us to embed impact principles at the founder level — resulting in stronger, scalable businesses.
Partner early, align on mission & governance, support B Corp certification, and reserve intelligently to help the best impact‑native teams scale.
Pre‑seed B Corp founders often struggle to find aligned capital.
Founders committed to a double bottom line outperform by inspiring stakeholders and avoiding mission drift.
Third‑party validation of governance and impact reduces greenwashing risk and signals long‑term resilience.
Few VCs specialize exclusively in B Corps. We bring deep expertise and sourcing networks.
Advisory through certification, mission governance, and purpose‑driven scaling.
Led by seasoned professionals with experience at Bridgewater, Gartner, McKinsey, and mission leadership.
Richard leads the fund with a unique blend of finance, enterprise platform expertise, and strategic leadership experience across disciplines.
Richard exemplifies the fund’s ethos: analytical rigor, enterprise product‑building depth, and a values‑first orientation. His mission‑aligned leadership includes writings on wellness, purpose, and personal transformation.
