Value Add
- Highly concentrated portfolio: “We limit our portfolio to 20 outstanding companies per fund” to provide bespoke, hands-on support.
- Partnership-as-product approach: “Partnership is our product. We don't just write checks, we jump in with unwavering commitment…”
- Decision-science driven: formalized process with Annie Duke to “track and analyze our investment decisions to identify patterns, reduce bias, and continuously improve our judgment.”
- Operational support capability: dedicated operating partner(s) (people, engineering, tax/CFO expertise) to help with hiring, org scaling, technical diligence and board-level guidance.
- Thematic investment lens: looks for companies that are “purpose-driven, attack a market at a tipping point, and build a compounding advantage.”
- Founder-led, fast decision-making: a small GP team (two equal partners) enabling streamlined, quick decisions while committing long-term support.
