Our Thesis

Generative Investments in Technology and Science

We curate scientist-founders passionate about entrepreneurship and frontier technology, building companies that deliver real value and lasting impact aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Evergreen Vehicle

Patient capital with no exit pressure. We build long-term relationships and support companies through every stage of their journey unconstrained by fund timelines.

No Performance Fee

Our managers are also investors. No performance fees means no misaligned incentives. We succeed only when our portfolio companies succeed.

Super-Return Control

A unique mechanism that redistributes excess gains to reinvest in the ecosystem, strengthening the chain of value and enabling more circular outcomes.

Our Beliefs

Balanced, Fair & Sustainable Evolution

Six principles guide every decision we make, from how we source founders to how we structure governance.

Start from Conception

A singular opportunity to build a healthy and fair model at the most critical and least competitive moment.

No Rush, No Pause

Responsible development tied to preserving critical performance indicators. Never sacrificing quality for speed.

Permanence Mindset

Returns based on consistent result flows, not perverse growth cycles and irrational multiple projections.

Influence on Management Culture

We actively shape the management culture of our portfolio, focusing on the point of balance and sustainable profitability.

Distributed Results

A fairer distribution of results to all stakeholders: founders, investors, employees and the broader community.

Sociocratic Governance

More decentralized political and economic power. Decisions made through consent, not command.

Methodology

Powerful and Grounded De-risking

A proprietary methodology inspired by Geoffrey Moore's Crossing the Chasm: a new way to originate and develop resources, people and opportunities to achieve rapid progress even in complex deep-tech contexts.
