Elevating the
Human Condition
We invest in technologies that can transform societies and are not yet visible to others
Our horizons are as broad as they are smart
We believe in harnessing the unprecedented expansion in human capabilities to address problems our societies still face. We invest in entirely new technologies or in innovative new ways of combining existing approaches, with our purpose being to elevate the human experience while delivering appropriate returns to our investors.
As investors we see two broad spaces in which innovations have the power to redress persistent unmet needs of societies: new technologies for production (bigger/better output) and new technologies for distribution (fairer sharing of proceeds).
To achieve these, we see two core values as essential. We invest in propositions developed around genuine innovation and complete transparency.
What We Do
We invest in small companies that, from their start, have defined their mission and vision in line with the greater good. We invest in technologies that deliver better solutions to human needs, cover more people, are cheaper and more affordable, or enable a fairer distribution of the proceeds to all participants.
What We Want
- To create for societies a better tomorrow, without today being collateral damage.
- To invest in technologies that will create bigger output and distribute it more fairly.
- To address unmet human needs through transformational new technologies.
- To deliver appropriate returns to our investors while building a better world.
How We Work To Get There
We bring to bear our core principles—innovation and transparency—across a wide range of verticals, which (for now) already include food production, the environment, renewable energy, financial services, and fashion.
