James Joaquin is a former repeat tech founder and CEO of seven companies who co-created the term "world positive" venture capital, emphasizing investments in high-growth mainstream businesses whose core products inherently create positive environmental or social outcomes rather than traditional impact investing with concessionary returns. He pioneered the "World Positive / ESG Term Sheet" concept that bakes mission and stakeholder considerations into company governance from day one, and approaches venture investing as "time machine building" by backing founders whose companies feel like they're importing a better future into the present.
