Frequently asked questions
What is SteelSky Ventures' investment mandate?
The firm invests exclusively in women's health across three pillars: consumer health, digital health, and healthcare infrastructure. Its stated $73 million in assets under management targets early-stage companies, typically Seed through Series A, with an emphasis on improving access, care, and outcomes for women.
Who leads investment decisions at SteelSky Ventures?
Founding and Managing Partner Maria Toler and Managing Partner Casey Albert lead the firm. Toler founded the firm and is its primary external voice — she introduced the First Lady at a 2024 White House event and has served as an Eisenhower Fellow (per firm website). Albert represents the firm at conferences including the Digital Healthcare Innovation Summit and Columbia Business School's Healthcare Conference.
Which companies has SteelSky Ventures backed that reached notable valuations?
Portfolio company Midi Health reached a $1.1 billion valuation in February 2026, while Zipline hit a $7.6 billion valuation in January 2026 (per firm website). Bend Health was acquired by Lyra Health in July 2025. The firm also held a position in 23andMe, which went public via SPAC in 2021.
Does SteelSky Ventures co-invest alongside other venture firms?
Yes. GV led Midi Health's $25 million Series A in September 2023. Motley Fool Ventures invested directly in SteelSky Ventures itself in February 2021 (per firm website). The firm's portfolio companies have also attracted follow-on capital from top-tier health-tech and generalist funds.
How is SteelSky Ventures connected to policy or regulatory initiatives?
Maria Toler was selected by the White House to introduce the First Lady at the February 2024 announcement of $100 million in federal funding for women's health R&D. She also hosted the First Lady in Atlanta for a roundtable on the White House Initiative on Women's Health Research that same month (per firm website). The firm's portfolio company Mae participated in a White House maternal health roundtable in December 2023.
Where is the underlying wealth from?
SteelSky Ventures is a venture capital fund that raises capital from external limited partners, not a single-family office. It has not publicly disclosed the source of its founding capital or the composition of its LP base, beyond noting an investment from Motley Fool Ventures in 2021.
Does SteelSky Ventures operate as a single-family office?
No. Despite its thematic focus and concentrated portfolio, SteelSky Ventures is structured as an asset manager that raises institutional capital. It manages a venture fund with multiple limited partners, not the wealth of a single family.
