Megan Bent

Founder & Managing Partner, Harbinger Ventures

About

Megan Bent invests exclusively in consumer companies with female or mixed-gender founding teams at Harbinger Ventures, framing this as a strategy to capture overlooked return potential rather than impact investing, and returns 10% of fund profits back to founders to align incentives. She takes a concentrated portfolio approach with deep founder relationships and connects gender diversity with specific market opportunities in categories like feminine care that have remained under-innovated due to traditional male-dominated capital allocation.
