Our mission

Owning your legacy takes courage. Courage to look in the mirror, and reshape the direction of capital.

Our harmonizing principles: Real talk. Personal journeys. Real insights. Data-guided investments.

We’re company builders and venture data pioneers. Decoding markets in real-time, like the human genome. Identifying fastest-growing companies globally.

Together we grow, build and act with intention. Identifying patterns that shape legacies, for generations to come.

  • We have experienced the full spectrum from idea to Fortune 500, from success to failure, from skepticism to admiration, and, more importantly, the toll on the personal side. Our commitment to personal development and using data to remove bias and understand markets drives our mission as venture investors.

  • We sit at the intersection of uncompromising data-guided decisions and personal founder development. We leverage our proprietary system to identify startups that align with our strategy and whom we want to meet, allowing us to spend a disproportionate amount of time with their founders.

  • We are building a highly personal and scalable venture firm where our proprietary system and data enable us to spend time where it matters the most - with founders.

    The strategies we implement are intentional and the result of reflection and alignment with our strategic investors and the legacy they wish to be a part of.

Our approach

We stack the deck using a proprietary and empirically proven system and approach that starts with vast amounts of real-time data and ends with deeply personal conversations with founders:

    • Quantify all bottlenecks by interrogating inefficient and/or disrupted global markets;

    • Identify top B2B enabling tech startups with high survivability probability within the severest bottlenecks;

    • Invest in uncompromising execution and highly adaptable founders empowered by personal development.

It doesn’t matter where you are, but where you are going:

  • Geography: Global

  • Stage: Seed or Seed+

  • First ticket: $1-3M
