About

We invest in companies, not rounds. From the very beginning and at every stage of the journey to come.

Investment approach

Thesis
We believe that giant leaps forward are made by a passionate few, so we invest in founders, not sectors or stages. Our companies are united only by their ambition to tackle the world’s greatest problems, led by founders who are doing their life’s work.Source (opens in a new tab)
