Future Shape

Future Shape is a global investment and advisory firm founded by Tony Fadell, the co-inventor of the iPod and founder of Nest. The firm focuses on "deep tech" startups that apply foundational science to solve significant real-world problems in sectors such as health, sustainability, and semiconductors. In the healthcare and life sciences space, Future Shape provides capital and intensive mentorship to companies developing breakthrough technologies in areas like gut-brain axis biology, mental health platforms, and advanced medical devices. Rather than operating its own clinical pipeline, the firm acts as a strategic partner to over 200 portfolio companies, helping them navigate the transition from lab-scale prototypes to mass-market products.
