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

Portfolio
We build a concentrated Portfolio. We do not seek co-investors at the time of our investment. We allocate large capital upfront to the Portfolio Company.
We partner with founders and operational teams to help write the playbook on the next stage of success: Product, Go To Market, and Technology. We seek to carry the Portfolio Company to over $100M in revenues.
Wave Equity Partners assists you in developing a full roadmap from funding to exit, including go-to-market strategy, IP management, production scale-up and exit strategy.
With significant industrial, operational and investing experience, we merge our proprietary process with our go-to-market know-how to accelerate your growth while reducing risk. By selecting only a limited number of portfolio companies to support, we’re able to work as hard as you do to achieve success.
As an investor in the cleantech space, while top decile returns are critical, so is your desire to invest in breakthrough companies making global environmental impact.
We seek generational sustainability innovators and pair them with the right resources and our proprietary playbook to maximize growth, return and impact.
We don’t seek the largest portfolio. Instead, we’re selective, enabling us to truly support our innovators in scaling their execution capabilities. As a result, our portfolio companies can grow faster with less risk.

15 strong and counting.
