Pivotal Ventures was founded by Melinda to advance American future

Melinda founded Pivotal Ventures because she wants to push America to become a more wealthy country for all of its residents while also doing her share to address global imbalances.

Pivotal Ventures was established in 2015 with the mission to "grow understanding around issues, expand participation, encourage cooperation, and fuel new approaches that substantially improve people's lives." Melinda's organization has made investments in companies that support paid family leave, offer outstanding mental health care to teenagers, and work to close the gender gap in technology.

Every person should have an equal opportunity to better their lives and the lives of others, according to Pivotal Ventures. Social growth requires equality, but equality by itself is insufficient. Even if everyone may eventually has equal access to opportunities, many people will still face institutional, political, and cultural challenges just because of who they are. All people should be allowed to contribute, participate, and lead better lives, according to Pivotal Ventures. The removal of obstacles that prevent people from achieving their potential is said to increase everyone's quality of life.
