About

We invest in frontier technology companies that use innovative science and deep technology to address some of the world’s most pressing challenges.

Investment approach

Thesis
From fighting climate change to treating disease to meeting the world’s insatiable demand for compute, these challenges need urgent answers. Addressing them will require bold, technical solutions that work on a massive scale -- creating the next trillion dollar opportunities. These contrarian solutions may seem crazy today but will feel obvious in hindsight. That’s why we’re investing at the frontier and supporting entrepreneurs as they build the companies that will define new categories and drive the next revolutions.Source (opens in a new tab)
