Investment strategy
Industry needs transformation, not disruption
Unlike Software, Industry has large supply chains, physical assets and legacy know-how that need to be brought along in order to address our current and future challenges. Think food, energy, water, and waste management — we need incumbent industries to successfully adopt new technologies, new business models, and new efficient methods. However, scale needs both efficacy and economics.
Industry incumbents, supply chains and engineers need transformation, not disruption.

Portfolio
We are building a concentrated Portfolio. We do not seek co-investors at the time of our investment. We allocate meaningful capital upfront to the Portfolio Company.
We partner with founders and their operational teams to help write the playbook to achieve the next stage of success: Product, Go-To-Market, Technology, and Execution. We work to propel the Portfolio Company to over $100M in revenues.
