About

Backing founders transforming how the world is built, powered, and moved - since 2007.

Investment approach

Thesis
We invest exclusively in the industries that together represent more than half of global GDP — energy, industrials, and mobility. These sectors don’t follow Silicon Valley cycles. They require transformation regardless of market conditions, and they reward investors with deep operational knowledge and durable commercial relationships.Source (opens in a new tab)
