Investment thesis

Three vectors, one conviction.

We back teams where deep technical edge meets a non-obvious go-to-market. The next decade will be won by companies that fuse breakthrough science with operational sophistication.

    How we operate

    Four disciplines, practiced without compromise.

    We run the firm the way the best founders run their companies — small team, clear doctrine, long view.

    1. 01

      Sourcing

      We meet founders quietly, often years before a first round — through operators, researchers, and prior portfolio CEOs.

    2. 02

      Conviction

      Two-partner write-up, full-partnership debate, and a clean yes or a clear no — delivered in under two weeks.

    3. 03

      Partnership

      One board seat, taken seriously. Between meetings, the lead partner is reachable on a first-name basis.

    4. 04

      Compounding

      We back our winners through every subsequent round and stay on the cap table well past IPO.

    Get in touch

    Building something extraordinary?

    We read every inbound. If you're a founder, share a deck and what you're building — we aim to respond within 72 hours.
