Emerson Collective is a social change organization focused on education, immigration reform, the environment, media and journalism, and health. Founded by Laurene Powell Jobs, the LLC uses philanthropy, impact investing, advocacy, and community engagement as tools to spur change in the United States and abroad. Emerson Collective is the family office tasked with executing the philanthropic vision shared by Laurene Powell Jobs and her late husband, Apple co-founder Steve Jobs. The office is set up as an LLC rather than a traditional philanthropic non-profit or trust, to allow for the ability to invest in private companies, non-profits and contribute to political campaigns. The LLC-philanthropic family office model has been replicated with the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative which serves as the investment vehicle for Facebook co-founder Mark Zuckerberg's philanthropic efforts. Emerson Collective has made 12 early-stage venture capital investments across various industries. Investments include FreshGrade, an education technology company; Politico, the political online news outlet; and Color Genome, an affordable genetic testing alternative.
