Three convictions, each held long enough to know the difference between a cycle and a shift.

The systems that make intelligence cheap: training and inference platforms, data pipelines, evaluation, and the security layer enterprises need before they deploy.

Software that absorbs the work, not just the workflow. We look for teams with unfair access to a regulated or operationally dense industry.

Hard technology with a physical footprint: robotics, quantum, energy, and the defense-adjacent systems that keep supply chains sovereign.

We lead rounds others find early or unfashionable, and we write the first check more often than the follow-on.
Every partner has shipped product or carried a quota. We take one board seat per two investments, and we answer within the day.
Ten-year funds, ten-week decisions. We commit or pass within three meetings so founders keep their calendar.
Send us a memo, not a deck. Two paragraphs on what you believe that others don't is enough to start.
