Actions Capital (fka K50 Ventures)

Loved hosting @nathanwchen at @mammothbiosci! We push each other to be our best 🙌

This fundraising round is not only a testament to the Yuvo team's execution strength but to the venture community's growing understanding of the massive need and opportunity in supporting FQHCs to reduce administrative burden and transition to value-based care.

These centers provide primary care to underserved populations around the country serving 30M+ people across just 1400 centers. They've continuously been left behind by both the US government and financiers including venture capitalists.

Congrats to the entire Yuvo Health team for achieving this massive milestone as they empower federally qualified health centers (FQHCs) to further quality care and value-based care arrangements fiercehealthcare.com/health-tech/yu…

2 years ago, I joined @K50Ventures as a venture partner. This place isn’t just another VC on your cap table. It’s a community of mission-aligned partners and founders that have your back from day one.  And that’s why I couldn’t be more excited to see the family grow.  Today, please join me in welcoming the newest member of that community, @nicktalwar as K50’s new Senior Partner. Hear from Nick on why he is joining the K50 fam: k50ventures.medium.com/8f52fec3a67 And from K50 on how they made the big decision to bring on a new partner: @K50Ventures

It's a pivotal day as we've added @nicktalwar to the partnership at @K50Ventures . Welcome Nick! Nick will deepen our embedded fintech footprint and help us in building a global community of the best purpose-driven founders. Read more here: k50ventures.medium.com/8f52fec3a67

All said in done, we are very excited where we landed and happy to share my learnings in going through this process with others going through this process. Welcome aboard @nicktalwar! We couldn’t be more excited about you joining the K50 family. This is just the beginning 🚀.

Most recently, he was the CEO and President of @CircleUp which backed many founders at the earliest stages. Moreover, Nick had 10+ years of leadership experience growing and leading talented teams at @Citi @Visa @amazon and @Uber which will be instrumental to new founders.

Grow our companies: We wanted someone who had the operating and life experiences that can support founders through their business building from first check to IPO. As an angel and board member, Nick had been hands-on with the founders of @PayJoy , Shipper, @altbankbr and others.

Nick had experience as a GP and an LP, which is rare. He had backed impressive fund managers in Silicon Valley/India/SEA, was starting his own fund before joining K50 and was a partner for ~4 years at growth equity firm, @apispartners

Growing with us: We strongly considered both the challenges that we as a firm are facing today vs. the opportunity we have ahead of us. At a small firm, you have to bring on partners that can both invest and help scale the firm.

Nick has had a career driven by his passion for pursuing financial and societal impact through tech. We saw that in his 20+ years of leadership experience, his angel investments and board positions, and the other communities he is a part of at @wef @YGLvoices @AspenInstitute

Mission-Alignment: At our core, K50 exists to help build life-changing technology for SMBs and middle-class consumers – while maximizing profits for investors in the process. We needed to bring on board a partner who represented that vision.

PSA: The K50 family is growing 🌱 Today, we welcome @nicktalwar as the newest member of our partnership!

Super grateful for my time @OneTableshabbat, @GCTech, @Company, @K50Ventures and now my new role at @HamptonFounders! This was recorded prior to joining Hampton, but hopefully I’ll be sharing more about Hampton soon👀

3/ @K50Ventures, we've invested in 50+ companies within our Health focus area and firmly believe in the global shift towards accessible value-based healthcare for all. We have backed founders solving problems across the technology stack leveraging various business models

2/ In just a few months of operating, they have processed nearly USD$4 billion in claims, equivalent to the health cost of 1.6+ million people and 50 million medical bills. This has led to a substantial amount of savings they've been able to capture from identifying FWA

4/ However, we are particularly bullish on infrastructure solutions for Brazil's health system. In order to accelerate innovation and drive more affordable quality care, you must first build the technology layer for data and transparency across payers, providers, and patients.

1/ I'm excited for Fabricio and Rafael to share with the world what they are building @Arvo. Their vision is to increase access to value-based healthcare in Brazil by addressing the systems foundational problems. In this case, the gross fraud, waste, and abuse (FWA) that occurs
