About

We employ insights drawn from the research of the late Co-Founder Clay Christensen to invest with the aim of driving great outcomes for our investors and entrepreneurs.

Investment approach

Thesis
We believe that just as the natural world has empirical physical regularities that are predicted and explained by theories, so does the business world. We view ourselves as business physicists. We draw on insights from our academically derived, empirically established frameworks to comprehend and aim to predict how, why, and under which circumstances businesses are more likely to succeed or to fail. Just as Newton’s laws help us to understand the future of the solar system, for example, we believe the frameworks of Disruptive Innovation, when used correctly, can provide us with insights on the potential movements and outcomes of businesses and markets.Source (opens in a new tab)
