Sarah Meyer Simon

Sarah Meyer Simon founded The Simon Collective in 2011 with a simple mandate: invest in people with compelling and thoughtful ideas to help them build concepts that last. Anchored in her principles of Connection, Curation, and Collaboration, she channels more than a decade of hands-on experience into identifying talent early and giving it the space to grow.

A longtime partner across the restaurant, bar, and hospitality landscape, Sarah has a natural instinct for early-stage investing, supporting brands from Seed through Series A. She focuses on shaping the concepts, teams, and environments that allow creativity to translate into real traction.

Since its inception, The Simon Collective has partnered with a select group of brands that have gone on to become staples in their markets. Guided by a founder-first philosophy, Sarah stays closely involved with each venture; offering strategic support and the connective tissue new-to-world concepts need to grow.

Her long standing partnerships with Apotheke, The Butcher’s Daughter, and Garden Table, all from their earliest days, illustrate her ability to spot potential early and help guide it into enduring success. Across every project, Sarah’s instinct as a founder, connector, and placemaker shapes ventures that reflect her discerning standards and long-term vision.
