Focus statement

Value Add

Research-based, network-driven sourcing: they state they “take a research-based approach, with our network being an integral part of this process.”
Sector depth in fintech and AI with a global remit — explicit emphasis on developed and emerging markets (Asia, Middle East, Latin America) and granular local/regulatory knowledge (e.g., Brazil fintech regulatory insights).
Developer- and product-centric orientation (e.g., backing teams building “authorization as code,” WebAssembly tooling, AI testing platforms), preferring solutions that embed into engineers’ workflows.
Portfolio construction across the stack — from infrastructure (WebAssembly, AI infra, SBOM/secure supply chain thinking) to application verticals (multifamily, healthcare, fleet safety, gaming fintech).
Operational partnership and repeat backing — they highlight doubling down on winners (e.g., continuing to invest in Netradyne) and active collaboration with founders and design partners.
Regulation- and demand-aware investment posture — they explicitly pressure-test infrastructure bets against demand and monitor regulatory tailwinds (e.g., Central Bank rules, DoD budget dynamics).
Thought leadership and content-driven diligence — publishing deep perspectives (WASM, AI, CV, generative voice, SBOMs, etc.) that both articulate thesis and signal domain expertise.
