Autism Impact Fund closes $60 million first fund and broadens its scope

Autism Impact Fund (AIF), a venture capital fund focused on investing in startups that address autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and related conditions, recently closed its first fund at $60 million, surpassing its initial target of $50 million. AIF, led by co-founder and managing partner Chris Male, aims to revolutionize the status quo for autism through the venture capital model while delivering strong returns. The fund has already made investments in 12 startups in the neurodiversity space and plans to raise its second fund within the next six to nine months. AIF's portfolio includes companies in the life sciences, data- and tech-enabled services, and the fund will further expand its focus to include behavioral health, innovative healthcare solutions, and value-based care frameworks.
