ABOUT THE FOUNDERS
Meet our founders, Maya and Michelle -
They both share a passion for urban farming, technology & sustainability. Both are operators and experienced CEOs. Their passion for investing, the ideology to not trade off impact & returns and their love for all things technology & sustainability brought them together as co-investors.
​
Maya & Michelle studied at INSEAD. Together they bring strong know-how in business development, operational growth, early stage investments, global landscape and relationships.They found a number of likeminded investors who were keen to support founders and follow their investments. With that Modern Manifesto was born, led by Maya and Michelle who believed deeply in a modern way of investing, where financial returns, entrepreneurial ambition & impact find a perfect balance.
