Our Inclusive Culture

We believe that success is achieved when unique experiences and perspectives come together

Building Culture is Everyone’s Business

Our corporate culture is founded on an enthusiasm to achieve, a passion for investing, and competitive spirit. We are entrepreneurs, thought leaders and global citizens. We have a performance-driven culture that recognizes and rewards achievement, and encourages everyone to act and think like owners. Seedvesters work hard, but we are humanistic, valuing our families and our communities. Our culture begins with who we hire. We have a collaborative hiring process, seeking to ensure that every new seedvester shares our values of excellence and integrity.

By focusing our diversity and inclusion program on three key pillars—workforce, workplace, and marketplace—we’re building our capacity of top talent, enhancing our inclusive culture, strengthening cultural dexterity, and leveraging the power of fresh thinking.

We believe that open communication across the firm is essential. We hold regular lunches and events for Seedvesters to meet up in a more social atmosphere as well as other informal social events.

We appreciate our communities and value the opportunity to give back. In addition to seedvests charitable foundation, we are regular sponsors of local charities including the Ronald McDonald House, the UNC Lineberger Cancer Center, Meals on Wheels and Habitat for Humanity, where we have enjoyed building houses as a group. We provide all employees with two paid volunteer days a year and match employees contributions to universities and colleges.

We are proud of the culture we have built at seedvest, where every employee is committed to putting clients' needs first.

At seedvest, it is what we do together that sets us apart. We are committed to building an environment where employees of all races, genders, sexual orientations, religions, ages, and diverse abilities feel encouraged to share their unique insights. Independent peer review is part of the basic fabric of our firm because we know that the more diverse perspectives we apply to a client solution, the better it will be
